On Thursday, Hillary Rodham Clinton and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) announced the creation of the U.S. Global Development Lab. The group consists of USAID and 31 universities, corporations and foundations. The group will use modern technology and scientific techniques to develop solutions to the world’s problems, particularly poverty. The goal of the group is to eliminate extreme poverty by 2030. While Clinton did not speak at this event, it is something that she has been involved with.
