| Project: |
The design of the African Enterprise Challenge Fund (AECF) (2006/07). |
| Funding: |
Commissioned by DIFD (UK Department for International Development). |
| Overview: |
Genesis Analytics are the lead consultants in designing the AECF which focuses on
agribusiness and financial services on a regional basis across Africa and seeks to apply
donor funding by awarding competitive grants to for-profit ventures that can illustrate their
pro-poor impact. The project spans two consecutive phases:
- Phase l (now complete) focused on the major design issues and on lesson
learning from other challenge funds, and resulted in an agreed set of narrower
design parameters.
- Phase ll (underway) involves detailed aspects of design,
governance and management arrangements.
