TITLE 22—FOREIGN RELATIONS AND INTERCOURSE
§ 8302
prosperity around the world. Deploying highly skilled
volunteers abroad is an efficient way to use our re-
sources consistent with the objectives of the United
States Government’s global prosperity agenda. United
States volunteers will help to achieve the objectives of
the global prosperity agenda, including providing clean
water to the poor, promoting democratic governance,
developing economic freedom, promoting free and open
markets, stemming the spread of HIV/AIDS and con-
trolling malaria.
The investment of Federal resources to enable U.S.
volunteers to work with nongovernmental and vol-
untary service organizations overseas is a preferred use
of our resources and also will help leverage private sec-
tor resources. United States citizens who are skilled
professionals and who volunteer, when matched with
organizations working on specific U.S. prosperity ini-
tiatives overseas, can provide invaluable support for
these initiatives and will supplement and complement
the traditions and accomplishments of the Peace Corps.
United States prosperity initiatives that can benefit
from volunteer service include, but are not limited to,
the Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, the Digital Free-
dom Initiative, the Water for the Poor Initiative, the
Trade for African Development and Enterprise Initia-
tive, the Middle East Partnership Initiative, and the
President’s Malaria Initiative.
Volunteer service in support of other initiatives, con-
sistent with U.S. foreign policy, shall be considered as
well.
(b) Applicability. The following agencies are subject to
the requirements of this order: the United States Agen-
cy for International Development (USAID), the Depart-
ment of State, the Department of Comm
