Caption: A man carries a desk being delivered to the Ministry of Agriculture, it is part of the funiture kit being delivered to the many ministries and municipalities in Baghdad. Following the cessation of hostilities that removed Ba'athist regime from power, many ministries were extensively damaged by looting and stripped of their office furniture and equipment. In response to these needs, USAID created the "Ministry in a Box" (MIB) program. Grants have been awarded to provide kits to a large number of ministries since May; these kits include basic office furniture and equipment that allows at least 100 employees to return to work.
