SDV INTERNATIONAL sent a team to Mexico City to participate in a trade and cultural exchange summit. The United States and Mexico have strong social, cultural and economic ties; common security concerns; and a shared border. Mexico, as an upper middle-income country with a high level of institutional capacity, is also a strong development partner for the United States.
United States Department Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Mexico Country Development Cooperation Strategy (CDCS) supports three Development Objectives (DOs) to: 1) strengthen rule of law and human rights; 2) reduce drug-related crime and violence, and; 3) promote transparency and integrity efforts under the Merida Initiative, multi-year, bilateral security cooperation program. A fourth DO supports the President's Global Climate Change Initiative.
The USAID Mexico Mission actively engages Mexico’s private sector through strategic alliances that encourage innovation and leverage resources to increase program impact, enhance sustainability, and replicate successful interventions across the country.
