The Digital Ecosystem Country Assessment (DECA), a flagship initiative of the Digital Strategy, identifies opportunities and risks in a country’s digital ecosystem to help the development, design, and implementation of USAID’s strategies, projects, and activities. It informs USAID Missions and other key decision-makers about how to better understand, work with, and support a country’s digital ecosystem. 

The Libya Digital Ecosystem Country Assessment (DECA) report presents the findings and recommendations of the Libya DECA. It outlines the key aspects of Libya’s digital ecosystem and provides 14 recommendations for creating a more inclusive, safe, and enabling environment. Guided by USAID/Libya priorities, the DECA process included desk research, consultations with  USAID/Libya and USAID/Middle East (ME) Bureau offices, and 58 key informant interviews with stakeholders from civil society, academia, and the private and public sectors.
