Summary:

"The decentralization of authority that the Coalition Provisional Authority initiated following the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime had the effect of empowering inexperienced local officials to manage the delivery of provincial government services. The consequences of this devolution in the decision-making required the U.S. and other donors to establish programs aimed at developing local capacities. The Provincial Reconstruction Team (PRT) Program is key among these. PRT's provide the best opportunity for U.S. government experts to provide grassroots support in the development of nationwide governance capacity in Iraq"--Introduction.
