What is a bilateral grant donor?

A bilateral grant donor is a government or agency that provides financial assistance directly to Another Country for development projects, humanitarian aid, or other initiatives. This type of donor typically engages in direct agreements with the recipient country, focusing on mutual interests and goals. Bilateral grants can support a range of sectors, including education, health, and infrastructure, and are often part of a broader foreign aid strategy. Examples include agencies like the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO).
