Lessons to Date USAID s decentralized architecture requires consistent communications and information flow between HQs and field teams. Aligning with investment case components (e.g. WB financed RBF) enables USAID support to serve hard to reach areas. The ownership and readiness of key stakeholders on the country platform is critical. Limited civil society participation in some countries.
