    In January, Devex covered the first insights into the U.S. Agency for International Development upcoming $17 billion NextGen contracts — one of the largest and most important award decisions in its history — as well as what to expect from U.K. aid in 2022, and the top emerging donors in Asia.

    This month, our career experts also offered a series of live events to help jumpstart your career with expert advice on giving your CV a makeover and how to assess if taking the leap to consulting could be the right step for you.

    Here’s a look at our top-read Devex Pro stories for January:


    1) What we know so far about USAID's $17B NextGen contracts. The $17 billion suite of nine contracts will collectively fund the procurement and distribution of life-saving health commodities to dozens of countries around the world.

    Join us at our signature event Prescription for Progress, where we bring together leaders working on technology and innovation to advance global health — and stay tuned for an upcoming exclusive event for Pro subscribers.

    2) Looking ahead to 2022 in UK aid. After last year was deemed the worst the United Kingdom’s development sector has ever endured, can we find some meager signs of optimism?

    3) USAID’s chief digital development officer outlines his priorities. Amid the need to operate in an increasingly digital world, the agency is turning to digital development initiatives.

    4) Wellcome announces $22B funding strategy.Wellcome is the second-largest nonprofit funder in the world, after the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and it just announced a new $22 billion funding strategy.

    5) USAID business forecast: Q1 2022. We tuned into USAID’s business forecast conference call for the first quarter to bring you the major takeaways.
