Over the course of five years, the USAID mission in BiH expects to refocus civil society on building constituencies and increasing the active roles that men and women, youth, and members of marginalized groups take in their communities and in political life.

One visible aspect of this progress will be BiH’s return to Tier 1 status in the State Department’s Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report.
USAID increases citizens’ access to high-quality, fact-based investigative reports on corruption to increase public access to and demand for anti-corruption initiatives and reforms required for Euro-Atlantic integration.
