And most of all thank you to @kemlu_RI @noradno and @CGDev for co-hosting this gathering!

Plus extra thank yous to the Government of #Indonesia for hosting us here and for having so many excellent colleagues here from across the government!

Something I’ve loved at the #DevelopmentLeadersConference is seeing colleagues from early @MCCgov partner countries representing their own governments’ presence as a development cooperation provider. Thank you Ms. De Palma (#ElSalvador) and Ms. Wahyuni (#Indonesia)!

@MCCgov And — looking farther ahead — Cabo Verde is developing a new MCC regional compact, focusing on economic growth through regional trade and integration. This partnership highlights the country’s commitment to democratic governance and development. #GrowWithMCC #CaboVerde #SIDS4

@MCCgov We’re looking forward to an upcoming @MCCgov compact with #Belize that will help tackle education and energy challenges, boosting post-primary education and reducing electricity costs. #SDG4 #SDG7 #SIDS4

@MCCgov The locally-led Mwakuri Aika Nakoraoi Ibukin Maeuraoimi (MANIM) project in #Kiribati is empowering youth with technical skills and scholarships. First cohort of 108 students will arrive in the US this summer! #YouthEmpowerment #GrowWithMCC  #SIDS4

Even happier to be able to run into @MCCgov country partners from across the planet: #Belize, #CaboVerde, #Kiribati, #SaoTome, #SolomonIslands, #TimorLeste, and #Vanuatu.

Happy to help represent the U.S. delegation at #SIDS4, the 4th International Conference on Small Island Developing States. 🌍#SustainableDevelopment

It was remarkable to help welcome President Ruto (and especially meaningful to me to be in Atlanta for his #democracy speech @CarterCenter). I’m proud of @MCCgov’s partnership with #Kenya, and even prouder it is among the many ways the US and Kenya draw closer. #USKEat60

The Kenya Urban Mobility and Growth Threshold Programme, which we launched in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, will tackle the economic growth challenges related to land use and transport planning in the Nairobi Metropolitan.

President @WilliamsRuto has arrived in the United States of America to begin a three day state visit. He will be at the Carter Presidential Library and Museum in Atlanta Georgia to deliver a speech on Governance and democratic values, anti-corruption, democracies working

It was a real pleasure to join colleagues from @WhiteHouse, #Nigeria, The #Gambia, #Dallas, @CCIdotCity, and @TheWilsonCenter to talk about the dynamic future of #cities at the #USAfricaBizSummit2024 #USAfricaBizSummit

Thank you to @MCC_CEO for great conversation today on the link between democracy and economic development. @freedomhouse greatly values our partnership with the @MCCgov, which uses our data in assessing whether countries will qualify for its grants.

Reflecting on our powerful dialogue at the @freedomhouse event yesterday. Country ownership remains key to our success at @MCCgov, and this collaborative approach to foreign assistance truly sets us apart in empowering nations to shape their own futures.
