The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) awarded a $9.9 million Project Grant to an undisclosed recipient on May 17, 2022 to support overseas development programs in the Solomon Islands. The funding falls under the MCC Foreign Assistance for Overseas Programs (CFDA No. 85.002) which aims to promote economic growth and poverty reduction through strengthening governance, economic freedom, and investments in people.
It can be reasonably inferred the grant will support the delivery of products and services focused on global development objectives, such as poverty alleviation and economic growth initiatives, governance reforms, and human capital investments in the Solomon Islands as outlined by the MCC's statutory mandate to provide United States foreign assistance through innovative and collaborative approaches. The award's place of performance and funding amount suggest the recipient will manage substantial in-country programming over multiple years to achieve the goals of the foreign assistance grant program.
