IFES expertise and programming can be accessed through a variety of USAID global funding mechanisms. IFES has conducted successful and cost-effective programming with U.S. government funds, including those from the State Department and the Agency for International Development [Economic Support Funds (ESF), Development Assistance Funds (DA), Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI), and others]. IFES is able to deliver results through contracts, cooperative agreements, grants, and purchase orders, all of which have proven to be flexible and successful mechanisms for IFES programming.

IFES strives to strengthen the ideas, institutions, and human capital that lend legitimacy to any democracy. IFES encourages an active civil society, promotes a just rule of law, and nurtures public officials capable of competent governance. In combining these functions into a comprehensive approach, IFES is unique as an international foundation with broad skills and a global reach.
