    SUBJECT: MICHAEL ERIC KITE/USAID TDY REPORTING CABLE

    ¶1.  Summary:  USAID/W Democracy Officer, Eric Kite, from the
    DCHA/DG/Strategic Planning and Research Division (SAR) completed a
    five-day TDY (November 2 to November 6) for USAID.  Mr. Kite worked
    with USAID grantees University of Costa Rica and Vanderbilt
    University and an associated multi-national team of Latin
    American/Caribbean survey researchers to assure USAID-funded
    democracy and governance surveys best serve USG foreign assistance
    programming and policy needs. End summary.

    ¶2.  Purpose of TDY:  the purpose of this TDY was to help finalize
    the 2006 democracy survey for Costa Rica funded by USAID/DCHA and to
    check progress of the website at the University of Costa Rica which
    will house regional survey data commissioned by USAID over the last
    15 years.  Additionally, Mr. Kite assisted a multi-national team of
    survey researchers to tailor survey reports to best serve the needs
    of USAID technical officers and policymakers.  Specifically:

    ¶A. Mr. Kite spent Friday (11/3) with the Centro Centroamericano de
    Poblacion (CCP) of the University of Costa Rica (UCR) reviewing the
    results of the USAID/DCHA-funded Costa Rica democracy survey, which
    forms the upper benchmark for democracy support and values for
    placing the other Latin American surveys in context.  Mr. Kite also
    reviewed progress in an effort to improve public opinion survey
    collection through the use of PDAS, and the development of a
    UCR-designed and hosted website to house, in a single location, all
    of the USAID-funded Latin America/Caribbean surveys funded to date.
    The meeting should result in greater utility of this website for
    both researchers and USG policymakers.

    ¶B. Over the weekend, Mr. Kite attended a two-day conference of
    survey researchers from 14 countries in the region to review initial
    results of their USAID-funded country surveys.  The meetings
    resulted in the development of country and regional report formats
    and areas of analysis.  Themes of analysis will include support for
    democracy and democratic institutions, political tolerance and the
    impact of crime and corruption on these USG development goals.  The
    reports will emphasize potential policy implications of survey
    findings for the USG.

    ¶C. Before departing Costa Rica on 11/6, Mr. Kite briefed Embassy San
    Jose Political, Economic and Public Affairs sections on the
    USAID-funded activities with UCR and briefed on the key findings of
    the Costa Rica country survey.

    ¶3.  Observations:  the TDY was a success in achieving its
    objectives:  oversight of USAID-funded activities with the
    University of Costa Rica and improving the utility of USAID-funded
    democracy surveys throughout the region.  Additionally, these
    regional meetings of survey researchers continue to contribute to
    substantial improvements in the capacity of local institutions to
    conduct high quality public opinion surveys and a better
    understanding on their part of the needs of policymakers versus
    academic audiences.  The utility of the surveys for informing USAID
    programs is increasingly clear, as expressed by the other USAID
    mission officers reviewing the new survey results at the conference.
     Concerning the Costa Rica survey, the University of Costa Rica team
    expressed interest in briefing Embassy San Jose in greater depth at
    any time in the future.

    ¶4. Conclusions or recommendations:  a complete trip report will
    follow to outline next steps in the completion of country and
    regional reports resulting from the 2006 democracy survey and in the
    implementation of the UCR website.  This will include
    recommendations for report contents and suggested timeframes for
    Washington and regional dissemination events.
