Every day, all over the world, USAID brings peace to those who endure violence, health to those who struggle with sickness, and prosperity to those who live in poverty.

March 2017—In 2012, Dr. Qudratullo Qodirov was one year out of medical school and had been offered a position as head of a tuberculosis (TB) center in the Rash district, some 200 kilometers from Tajikistan’s capital city of Dushanbe.

Кадырбек Баратов да көпчүлүктүн катарынан чыкпады. Ал баардыгын атасынан үйрөнгөн соң анын жолун жолдоп, жүгөрү өстүрүүгө киришкени менен ошол эле ыкмаларды колдоно алды.

Nearly all farmers in the southern oblast of Jalal-Abad in Kyrgyzstan grow maize according to traditional methods—with outdated techniques and high manual labor—which limit profitability.

Some corners of Kosovo’s major cities could easily be mistaken for Milan or Paris, with flashy designer shops and boutiques lining the streets. But unlike Milan and Paris—which attract designers from all over the world—Kosovo’s designers are all home-grown and draw from a rich 200-year history in textiles.
