Description
The Asia Foundation is a nonprofit, nongovernmental organization committed to the development of a peaceful, prosperous, just, and open Asia-Pacific region. The Foundation supports Asian initiatives to improve governance and law, economic development, women's empowerment, the environment, and regional cooperation. Drawing on nearly 60 years of experience in Asia, the Foundation collaborates with private and public partners to support leadership and institutional development, exchanges, and policy research. With 17 offices throughout Asia, an office in Washington, DC, and its headquarters in San Francisco, the Foundation addresses these issues on both a country and regional level. In 2011, the Foundation provided more than US$97 million in program support and distributed nearly one million books and journals valued at over US$41 million.

Units of Aid
The Foundation intends to publish at two levels. First, we will publish our overall PPA allocation from DFID as an umbrella project. This funding currently includes 7 countries, and 16 components. Second, we will publish project components within our overall PPA project (i.e., 16 separate components). Most components will be country-specific, though a few will be cross-cutting or regional.
Segmentation of Published Data
By country / region - Most of our published data (12 of 17 project records) are country specific. However, several of our components are multi-country, and the overall PPA funding is also multi-country. We will be sure to indicate country or "regional" for each record. All "regional" activities are confined to the region of South and Southeast Asia.
