Moldova
The Challenge
USAID’s primary objectives in Moldova are to achieve economic growth, accountable government, and improved social conditions for Moldova’s citizens. USAID's strategy concentrates on job creation, income generation, and expanding economic opportunity and active citizen engagement in economic and political decision-making. USAID encourages growth by improving the environment for private enterprise and improving Moldova’s competitiveness in world markets. It supports strong communities and accountable democratic institutions by strengthening local government and civil society, and helping to control Moldova’s most dangerous public health threats. The key challenges for USAID in Moldova remain corruption, limited transparency, and fragile rule of law, all of which discourage foreign investment, frustrate citizens’ attempts to be active in political life, and hinder the development of a prosperous society.
