The Women + Water Alliance is a global development alliance (GDA) between USAID and Gap Inc. and its partners, CARE, Water.org, WaterAid, the Institute for Sustainable Communities (ISC), International Center for Research on Women (ICRW) and the Institute for Development Impact. Jointly, the alliance delivered converging activities related to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) in seven districts in the Indian states of Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. This infographic developed by I4DI outlines the key convergence activities of all partners throughout the six years of program implementation.
This infographic analyzes the consequences of USAID’s 2023–2024 restructuring, which led to the termination of 5,341 projects and the defunding of 2,353 implementing partners, many of whom lost 100% of their USAID support. Over 55% of recipient countries lost all funding. The analysis extends beyond the U.S. to consider concurrent budget contractions by other donor countries, indicating a systemic shift in how foreign aid is prioritized and delivered. The infographic visualizes these changes, offering insights into the scale, distribution, and potential implications of a more constrained and transactional development aid environment.
