Infrastructure serves as the backbone of a state and often is citizens’ primary daily interaction with state services through public utilities such as water, electricity, and roads. Robust state infrastructure contributes to a decrease in inequalities, particularly between urban and rural communities, and helps better facilitate security, administrative control, human capital development, and disaster response. Laying a foundation for the market, infrastructure also creates avenues for participation in regional and global economies.
