Description
Excerpt: Benjamin Homan, ACVFA Chairman, welcomed the ACVFA Members, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) staff, and the meeting participants. He drew attendees? attention to the word ?public? at the top of the meeting agenda, noting that as they well know, many nations do not have public processes simply having a public advisory panel such as ACVFA is a testament to American democracy. He described a meeting a few weeks prior with Saddam Hussein?not the one on trial in Iraq but another, working to serve humanitarian needs in Central Asia. The work of those in this meeting room is to put future Saddam Husseins on that same path to public service.
