Georgia
The Challenge
USAID’s key challenge in Georgia is to help consolidate the achievements of the Rose Revolution and increase the pace of economic, democratic, and social reform to the point where they are irreversible. The major impediments are political and economic constraints caused by Georgia’s two breakaway republics (Abkhazia and South Ossetia), a lack of institutional capacity throughout government, rising poverty levels in rural areas, a poor investment climate resulting in lack of employment opportunity, and poor overall health indicators, particularly for women and children. In response, USAID implements a broad program of assistance to strengthen government institutions that advance key reforms, and delivers resources for a robust program of community-based activities to improve economic and social conditions.
