The vision for USAID’s Mission to Armenia 2009-2013 Strategy is "Sustainable development through increased competitiveness, higher quality social services and a more empowered civil society". USAID is proud to be supporting Armenia during this time of historic transformation. We appreciate your interest in our work and would be pleased to hear from you.
