USAID. The United States Agency for International Development (“USAID”) has had significant experience with community-based development that targets poor communities, and the “Growth with Equity in Mindanao” Program has provided a number of lessons for the implementation of the KALAHI-CIDSS Project as it relates to small-infrastructure construction specifically. Approximately 60 percent of USAID’s program funding is provided to Mindanao and the agency aims to continue these investments and others like it in the region. Therefore, USAID, the World Bank and MCC agreed that MCC would concentrate its KALAHI-CIDSS Project in the Luzon and Visayas regions thereby broadening the reach of such programs throughout the Philippines.
