Over the last 15 years, USAID/Ukraine Mission programs and activities have led to tangible results in the areas of economic growth, democracy and governance, and health and social transition. Some recent accomplishments for 2007 are listed below.

Economic Growth

Ukraine’s transition to a market economy has been a difficult process. While dismantling a command economy deeply integrated with the Soviet system has presented serious challenges, USAID programs have made a substantial difference in several key areas.

Democracy and Governance

Since independence, Ukraine has taken measured steps toward building democratic political mechanisms and institutions. USAID programs and activities have focused on reinforcing pluralism and transparency in the political process, implementing the rule of law, strengthening civil society and NGOs, assisting in local government development, and supporting independent media.

Health

USAID's support for social sector restructuring in Ukraine is designed to protect the most vulnerable members of society: the elderly, children, the disabled, the homeless, and alcohol and drug abusers. Activities range from building viable frameworks for pension and employment insurance and consolidating revenue collection for more sustainable social services to assisting the management capacity of local organizations to deliver social assistance. USAID has designed several programs to improve the availability of social services through work with local administrations and a growing network of indigenous NGOs.
