2013-2017 Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy
The Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) process was established with the passage of the Economic Development Reform Act of 1998. In this act, the CEDS process is a requirement for EDA public works and economic adjustment grants.
The CEDS process is an opportunity for American Samoa to take a fresh look at its economic development goals and future, economic opportunities and constraints, project priorities and costs, implementation plans and economic development organization conditions. In summary, the CEDS process and periodic updates represent a valuable tool for local communities in support of long-term economic development efforts. This is a most opportune time for American Samoa to assess its economic future as it faces the most challenging economic conditions in its brief modern history.
