The new approach is simple: U.S. funds pay for frontline outcomes — medicines, diagnostics, and health workers — not NGO overhead. Partner countries must co-invest, meet performance metrics, and deliver measurable results. Bilateral compacts replace open-ended grants. Accountability is contractual, not aspirational. If nations don’t meet benchmarks, funding shifts elsewhere. This is not moralizing. This is not dependency. This is a deal.
