Romania
The Challenge
USAID's goal is to assist Romania through its democratic, economic, and social transition and to help the country meet the requirements of European Union accession. Impediments to these goals include endemic corruption, a weak judicial system, weak links between elected officials and constituents, underdeveloped civic groups, a difficult business climate, and inefficient management of resources in the country's health and social services. With 2006 as the last year of funding and the impending phase-out of U.S. development assistance in Romania, USAID programs seek to improve local democratic governance, strengthen health and welfare services, and stimulate economic growth. USAID programs will provide assistance to the parliament, political parties, and civil society; improve the environment for small businesses; promote health system reform; and develop community welfare services for abandoned children.
