As I perused USAID's new Policy Framework , I was struck by the number of references to other policy statements and strategies that are still in the works. These are all good signs that the agency's Policy, Planning and Learning Bureau is thinking hard about how to effectively implement principles in the PPD and QDDR. And they are good tools for those of us on the outside to judge and nudge the administration to follow through with its stated objectives and strategies.

So here are the strategies already released and the list of those yet to come.

Published Strategies:
   
- USAID Policy Framework, 2011-2015 (September 2011)
- USAID Policy: The Development Response to Violent Extremism and Insurgency (September 2011)
- USAID Education Strategy: Opportunity Through Learning (February 2011)
- USAID Evaluation Policy: Learning from Experience (January 2011)

Planned Strategies for the Coming Year:

- Gender Equality and Female Empowerment Policy
- Global Climate Change and Development Strategy
- Sustainable Services in a Rapidly Urbanizing World
- Broad-Based Economic Growth
- Donor Engagement Policy
- Democracy, Rights, and Governance
- Youth Policy
