Regional Development Mission-Asia (RDM-Asia)
The Challenge
The economies of South and East Asia are disparate, presenting a challenge to regional governance, economic reform, and development. While some countries have experienced periods of sustained economic growth, gains have often been distributed unevenly. There is a burgeoning youth population with limited employment opportunities and terrorism is a growing concern. The capacity of government institutions to deliver services is limited and corruption is rampant. Also, countries must address environmental concerns as the region continues to urbanize and industrialize. HIV/AIDS continues to be a critical problem and emerging infectious diseases, such as avian influenza are taking a serious toll on economies in the region. USAID implements regional development activities and addresses global issues, enabling the U.S. Government to thwart the advance of terrorism, encourage economic progress, fight disease, and assist in the development of freedom and democracy.
