Catherine Herrold on the Campbell Conversations

Syracuse University

USAID has been in the news more lately than at any point since its founding during the John F. Kennedy administration. What exactly does the government agency do? How does it fit with all U.S. foreign aid? Could its work be done more efficiently elsewhere? This week, Grant Reeher talks with Catherine Herrold, a professor at Syracuse University's Maxwell School, and an expert on USAID.

Grant Reeher is a Political Science Professor and Senior Research Associate at the Campbell Public Affairs Institute at Syracuse University's Maxwell School of Citizenship. He is also creator, host and program director of “The Campbell Conversations” on WRVO, a weekly regional public affairs program featuring extended in-depth interviews with regional and national writers, politicians, activists, public officials, and business professionals.
