Kyrgyzstan Local Economic Development Program: Final Report

The USAID-funded Local Development Program (LDP) stimulated rapid, diversified, and sustained economic growth in the Kyrgyz Republic through strategic partnerships with local governments, the private sector, and other stakeholders by providing direct support to target municipalities. When the program began in September 2010, the Kyrgyz Republic was recovering from a period of civil unrest and sought guidance and assistance to re-energize its local governance and economy. To support these goals, LDP connected and leveraged existing capacities and built relationships to produce significant, objectively measured, sustainable results.
