This includes 40,000 adolescent girls who completed a tailored non-formal education program designed for older girls who had never attended school. The program covered basic math, reading skills, and financial literacy. As a result, participants' average reading comprehension scores increased by 20 percentage points.

USAID/Georgia:
Economic Security Program
Economic Security Program (ESP), implemented by DAl, was selected as a 2022 Digi Awards winner for providing training on information communication technology (ICT) to the country's workforce and connecting local artisans to online markets.
ESP uses a variety of innovative solutions to strengthen the ICT workforce and accelerate private sector development. Private sector engagement has helped drive sustainable business growth for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through the development of individually owned and operated e-commerce sites—in addition to e-sites on Etsy for artisans, which were majority women-owned and operated.
Linking workforce development to local institutions also accelerated economic transformation by attracting the capital and technologies needed for growth and catalyzing multi-stakeholder problem-solving and co-investment.

usaid After a decade of power by the authoritarian government, Ecuador faces daunting challenges to democracy and human rights, including the rise of organized criminal gangs, a plunging economy, and increased violence and homicide rates.
Against this backdrop, Maria Dolores Mino, the Executive Director of the USAlD-supported non-governmental organization Observatorio de Derechos y Justicia de Ecuador (ODJ), has become one of Ecuador's most influential human rights activists. Her organization has carried out initiatives to tackle corruption in the private sector and entry-level officials in the public sector, through digital education and dialogues.
