Economic Reform in Muslim Majority Countries

Economic Reform In Muslim Majority Countries in 2016

In countries with predominantly Muslim populations, the pursuit of economic growth is one way of achieving sustainable social benefits that can reduce some of the pressures that may lead some to turn to violent extremism. In 2016, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), in cooperation with other U.S. government agencies, undertook programs that promoted reforms to enable developing and transitional countries to more effectively and transparently allocate resources toward activities to accelerate economic growth. USAID activities often focused on improving the regulatory or business-enabling environment so that small and medium businesses can flourish and contribute to increased economic activity and trade. Program interventions have been designed to pursue measurable results in the commercial, legal, and regulatory framework that would increase transparency and accountability while lowering the costs, obstacles, and time required for doing business. These programs have not been designed to measure impact against violent extremism.
