Overview
This renewal grant would support CAP’s Sustainable Security and Peacebuilding Initiative, which emphasizes the need for smart, forward-looking investments in global prosperity and stability to secure U.S. national security over the long term. Under a previous grant from the Hewlett Foundation, CAP played a lead role in creating and advancing the Modernizing Foreign Assistance Network. It will continue to work closely with the Network members as they seek to shape the policy debate on critical reforms to the U.S. aid system, including a long overdue push for reform, as well as the creation of a U.S. National Strategy for Global Development.

The Center for American Progress is an independent, nonpartisan policy institute dedicated to improving the lives of all Americans through advancing bold progressive ideas, as well as strong leadership and concerted action. This grant supports its efforts to ensure that America’s public lands, waters, and wildlife are protected for everyone to experience and explore; that America’s natural resources are developed wisely, safely, and with a fair return to taxpayers; and that public lands are being managed for sustainable economic growth — from creating jobs in recreation and clean energy industries to delivering the quality of life that attracts employees and businesses to Western communities.
