Azerbaijan
The Challenge
USAID’s program aims to assist the Government of Azerbaijan (GOAZ) to develop the non-oil sector and have a smooth transition to democratic rule.
Currently, the greatest challenge is maintaining macro economic stability in the face of a surge of oil revenues. The key impediments are pervasive
corruption, lack of capacity in the public sector, lack of market economy structures in government in order for the GOAZ to manage state revenues and
develop the non-oil sector, and lack of an active citizenship culture. USAID is developing an anti-corruption component for each activity. Building capacity
is supported through technical assistance and exchanges; automating systems to combat corruption and make efficient processes (i.e., creating a
treasury system); assistance on capital budgeting; reforming policy and procedures on health sector financing; and working with the GOAZ Anti-
Corruption Commission among other activities.
