U.S. Senate Staff Observes USAID Efforts in Kazakhstan
In May 2007, staff from the office of U.S. Senator Richard Lugar traveled to Kazakhstan to meet with several USAID project implementers and USAID-supported NGOs as part of a worldwide study examining the implementation and coordination of U.S. foreign assistance in the field. During their visit, Senate staff members Paul Foldi and Marik String attended a roundtable discussion with representatives from Counterpart International, the International Center for Not-for-Profit Law, Junior Achievement, ARGO Civil Society Development Association, Junior Achievement, and the Kazakhstan Public Policy Research Center. They also met with Freedom House, Chemonics, ABA/CEELI, the International Republican Institute, and the International Democratic Institute.
A highlight of Mr. Foldi and Mr. Marik’s visit was a tour of Almaty’s Youth Power Center, managed by the CAPACITY project, to observe results of a successful USAID HIV prevention program for at-risk youth.
