In partnership with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), RTI Internation uses research to assess the developmental challenges faced in Laos and customizes resources and assistance programs to create solutions for the development of Laos institutions, services, and skill development in areas such as gender and inclusion, financial management, and strategic planning. The project aims to sustain and improve human resources, create collaboration among civil society institutions across sectors, and increased connectivity of local services of support.
