On July 20, 2016, President Obama hosted the White House Summit on Global Development to recognize progress we've made and ensure it continues. The Summit brought together development leaders, public and private sector partners, civil society, diplomats, and entrepreneurs to discuss the progress achieved by the Administration’s approach to development and chart a course forward to continue the progress in the years ahead. Strive Masiyiwa introduced President Obama, who spoke at the summit. From the very beginning of his Administration, President Obama has defined development as an investment in the future security and prosperity of us all. The U.S. government has established new and effective approaches to development that leverage new models of financing, empower local partners, harness innovation, and measure progress in terms of real-world results. From Feed the Future to Power Africa to the Open Government Partnership, the Administration's signature initiatives have dramatically reduced poverty, malnutrition, and infant and maternal mortality, while spurring entrepreneurship and economic growth, increasing the number of young women in school, and helping to build more stable, accountable and inclusive societies.
