Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies

A new memorandum is shaking up the world of NGOs. We dissect a document from February 6th, 2025, directing US government agencies to review and realign funding for Nongovernmental Organizations (NGOs) to better serve "United States Interests." What does this mean for NGOs receiving US taxpayer dollars? We break down the memo's key directives, explore the potential impact on organizations working in areas like humanitarian aid and human rights, and discuss the broader implications for US foreign policy. Is this a necessary course correction or a potential threat to independent advocacy? Tune in to find out.
