Locations

Afghanistan

Afghanistan’s infrastructure base remains severely underdeveloped after decades of conflict, with major gaps in transport, electricity generation and water systems. Connectivity projects linking Central and South Asia have been viewed as potential drivers of trade and economic stabilisation. However, limited fiscal space, sanctions-related financial isolation and weak institutional capacity significantly constrain infrastructure financing and private investment. Sustainable development will depend on improved governance frameworks, regional cooperation and gradual restoration of investor confidence.

American Samoa

American Samoa is an unincorporated territory of the United States with an economy traditionally anchored in tuna processing and government employment, and its development strategy increasingly emphasises modernising infrastructure and diversifying economic activity. Recent territorial programmes have advanced numerous transportation and community infrastructure projects, expanded broadband and digital connectivity, and mobilised U.S. recovery funding to support capital improvements and economic resilience. Continued investment in infrastructure, economic diversification beyond fisheries, and expanded financial sector capacity are seen as important to enhancing long-term growth and reducing dependency on federal aid.
