Status  
Stated Role CIPE provides management assistance, practical experience, and financial support to local organizations to strengthen their capacity to implement democratic and economic reforms.
Activities CIPE works in four principal areas, helping the business community to become a leading advocate for market-oriented reform and democratic governance. These include: a grants program supporting grassroots networks in developing countries, an award-winning communications strategy, capacity building programs, and technical assistance through field offices. One of the unique attributes of CIPE is its ability to creatively employ concepts like transparency, accountability, fairness, and responsibility in institutional reform, laying the foundation for democracy at all levels of society.<P>CIPE partners with business associations, think tanks, and other private sector organizations in countries where there is both a need for progress and an opportunity for reform. CIPE’s institutional approach to development recognizes that changes will not occur overnight and a long-term commitment is needed for reforms to succeed.<P>Long after a country or a region disappears from the headlines, important work remains in order to prevent reforms from being overturned at the first sign of difficulty. CIPE enables its partners to develop and become leaders of sustainable development initiatives in their countries. At the same time, CIPE also supports key reformers in places where serious progress has yet to take hold.<P>CIPE recognizes that successes in one region may provide a model approach for another. CIPE and its partners continue to apply lessons learned across regions, creating new approaches in countries at various stages of democratic reform.<P>
