The Challenge

USAID assistance to the Philippines promotes regional stability and security, critical to this region's role in the war against terror, while contributing to improved governance and economic growth. With 60% of development assistance focused on Mindanao, USAID programs counter the appeals of terrorists in conflict-affected areas otherwise vulnerable to exploitation. This U.S. Government investment in Mindanao is important, as terrorists have used Philippine territory as a base of operations, exploiting weak rule of law and armed conflict rooted in Muslim separatist and Communist insurgencies. An estimated 46% of Filipinos live in poverty, and Muslim Mindanao is the most marginalized area of all. As the Philippines struggles to provide sufficient jobs, infrastructure, health services, and education for its rapidly growing population, USAID helps to fight corruption; improve governance, health and education; spur economic growth; and promote the sustainable use of natural resources.
