Established during the Bush administration with bipartisan congressional support, the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) relies on a core set of principles: economic growth, competitive selection, accountability, and measurable results. President Obama has testified that his administration embraces the MCC approach as a model for development policy reform. As the new Congress considers the future of foreign assistance, Daniel Yohannes, CEO of MCC, and panelists from across the political spectrum will gather to discuss whether a bipartisan consensus is emerging on aid effectiveness and assess MCC's experience in putting these best principles into practice. Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili will introduce Mr. Yohannes.
