USAID currently has 22 bilateral field missions
and 3 regional programs in Sub-Saharan Africa. The African
Missions, Regional Economic Development Support Offices (REDSOs),
and the Regional Center for Southern Africa (RCSA) provide
vitally needed technical and programmatic support services
to client USAID bilateral missions, government and non-governmental
organizations (NGOs), and private entities throughout the
region.
REDSO staff manage activities aimed at such
trans-national issues as:
· prevention of HIV/AIDS;
· promotion of inter-country trade;
· development of the private sector;
· prevention of environmental degradation;
· implementation of regional programs such as the Greater Horn of Africa
Initiative (GHAI).
The Regional Center for Southern Africa is responsible
for the implementation of the Initiative for Southern Africa
(ISA). The RCSA works with bilateral missions and host country
partners to support regional initiatives.
