Guinea


The Challenge

USAID’s programs in Guinea aim to advance inclusive governance reform over the next three years by providing technical assistance, training and material support to civil society, the private sector and targeted government institutions in which the opportunity for reform exists. Bilateral and multilateral discussions have recognized that the main obstacles to advances in economic growth, agriculture, natural resources management, health, and education are governance constraints that impede development in these areas. To this end, USAID is working through implementing partners to increase civil society and the private sector’s effectiveness to monitor governance and advocate for reforms, while assisting targeted government institutions to improve their capacity and systems to operate more efficiently and effectively with more transparency and accountability.
