For the past ten years, USAID’s Development Innovation Ventures (DIV) has supported innovators who are developing creative, scalable, and cost-effective solutions for the world’s most intractable development challenges. In the face of the COVID-19 outbreak, DIV’s innovators continue to demonstrate ingenuity by adapting their delivery models to withstand the global crisis, diversifying their work, and developing critical resilience. VisionSpring, SafeBoda, doctHERs, Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator, Living Goods and Every Shelter are six such DIVs.
