Global Fragility Reauthorization Act

This bill, the Global Fragility Reauthorization Act, reauthorizes and largely updates the Global Fragility Act of 2019. Its purpose is to strengthen U.S. government efforts to prevent violence and stabilize conflict-affected areas by tightly coordinating diplomacy, development, and defense across agencies. It expands how and where priority countries are designated, requires annual interagency steering committee meetings to align policy, and broadens interagency and private-sector involvement in implementing the fragility strategy. It also extends key funding authorities through 2030, increases emphasis on monitoring and learning, and authorizes use of additional funds for evaluation and learning activities. The bill envisions applying fragility principles more broadly while preserving current priority regions and making adjustments to programming as conditions change. In short, the bill aims to make the Global Fragility Strategy more integrated, more widely applicable, and more accountable through new reporting, staffing, and funding provisions, while maintaining a focus on a core set of priority regions and advancing measures to improve effectiveness and evaluation.
