MCC's compact with Mongolia invested in strengthening property rights, reducing non-communicable diseases and injuries, bolstering vocational education, reducing air pollution, and constructing an all-weather road to link markets.
The MCC compact integrated conclusions from Lesotho’s poverty reduction plan, the result of a three-year consultative process led by the government involving 20,000 people in 200 villages across the country.
By the end of the compact in September 2013, the government and MCC had spent nearly 99 percent of anticipated compact funds to improve water supply, increase access to essential health services, and remove barriers to private sector investment. Approximately 1 million people are expected to benefit from the investments.
The program sought to reduce corruption by bolstering several key anti-corruption institutions, and boost immunization rates through a decentralized and sustainable immunization management system.
MCC helped integrate internal markets and reduce transportation costs by upgrading Cape Verde's infrastructure, including modernization of the Port of Praia. MCC also helped link businesses to credit markets and promoted drip irrigation.
In December 2018, MCC’s Board of Directors selected Burkina Faso as eligible for concurrent compacts in order to determine if there are compacts that meet MCC’s strict investment criteria, and the country’s ability to work with MCC and a partner country.
