(2) to provide counsel on DRG strategic and budget planning for USAID missions in the region and to the intra and interagency;

(3) to participate in intra- and inter-agency policy engagement on country-specific DRG issues; and (4) to provide direct technical assistance to missions, for example related to DRG assessments, evaluations or project designs.
