MASHAV's main project focus is on agricultural pilot and demonstration projects which serve as a platform for training, extension and research and development.  It also works with partner countries to set up support networks for micro-enterprises, small and medium enterprises and agribusinesses. In addition, each year, it also  completes a select number of small-scale, turnkey medical infrastructure projects.

The guiding principles of MASHAV projects are sustainability and replicability. These aims are achieved by the following means:

Every MASHAV project is accompanied by extensive capacity-building and training activities both in Israel and on the project site.

MASHAV is committed to long-term, follow-up activities in all its projects, including the posting of long-term expert consultants at project sites.

Project technologies are carefully selected to suit the needs and capacities of the local populations. Similarly, methodologies taught are designed to be easily replicable by individuals or small collectives.

MASHAV projects are designed in cooperation with host countries and local partner institutions. Maximum flexibility is maintained in order to address specific local needs.

With growing technological challenges, MASHAV's programs encourage trainees to find their own solutions to problems and adapt them to their respective cultural and social values, economic potential, natural resources and regional priorities. The Agency for International Development Cooperation (Hebrew acronym: MASHAV) has been active throughout the developing world since the late 1950s, assisting countries to alleviate problems of hunger, disease, and poverty by means of technical training and technology transfer.
