The Ministry of Planning’s Central Statistical Organization (CSO) in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and with funding from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has conducted a study on Micro, Small, and Medium-Enterprises (MSMEs) in Iraq. The Survey covered the three governorates of Baghdad, Basra, and Nineveh. The study provides an evidence base to inform policies and strategies aimed at creating sustainable livelihoods, including through MSMEs’ development. It is designed to build a comprehensive analysis on the MSMEs structures, trends, business dynamics, challenges and opportunities through up-to-date, reliable, relevant market information and analysis.
