Vanuatu: Building a Road for Greater Possibilities
Not too long ago, in the village of Meten on Efate Island, Vanuatu, a mother’s trip to sell her flowers and produce at the main market place in Port Vila, Vanuatu’s capital, would take hours on a narrow, dusty and pothole-ridden road. Then in 2006, Vanuatu entered into a $66 million compact with the U.S. Government’s Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) for road reconstruction.

The Power of Books
Francina Mutilifa plans to pursue her dream of becoming a lawyer, but as a 10th grader at Rehoboth High School, she is already facing a number of challenges. The school, which is 91 kilometers south of Windhoek, Namibia, has never had enough textbooks for students to use at home. Francina, like many of her classmates, is sometimes rushed to do homework in class and then must finish her work at home, without the benefit of her textbooks.

When Water Flows, Economic Growth Follows
Ashot Abrahamyan is a farmer in Armenia whose apricot orchards lie beneath picturesque purple mountains. His farm is 30 meters above the closest public canal; so in order to irrigate, he had to pump water for more than seven hours every day. For decades, less than three kilometers of the canal system were operational. Beginning late 2009, to respond to the irrigation needs of Mr. Abrahamyan and hundreds of other Armenian farmers, the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) funded the reconstruction of gravity-fed irrigation systems as part of its compact with Armenia.
