Our Health team was at the 25th International AIDS Conference where they presented the excellent work we’ve done across Africa - from peer learning to research utilisation and costing. This is the world’s largest conference on HIV and AIDS with an estimated 15,000 participants in Munich and virtually.

Flagship projects presented were:

Applying behavioural principles to improve the adoption of data management guidelines Insights from South Africas MMC programme

Assessing the cost affordability and cost effectiveness of innovative strategies for VMMC in Zimbabwe

Implementation of a Data Review Intervention to Mitigate Data Leakages in the South African VMMC Programme

Improving the quality of Global Fund applications: The effect of a peer learning network

Integration of HIV services with PHC A comprehensive review of costs and cost effectiveness

The SSLN provides effective ways to learn and share best practices on HIV prevention in SSA

Sustaining Impact A Comprehensive Assessment of the National Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision VMMC Programme in South Africa

Self reflection and peer learning are key to improving HIV prevention capacity in WCA

The Rockefeller Foundation appointed Genesis as the Monitoring, Evaluation, Research and Learning (MERL) partner for the Food Initiative’s East Africa portfolio. In our role as the MERL partner, Genesis has supported the foundation to develop the initiative’s theory of change and to build the MEL framework based on learning questions that are reflective of the evolving nature of the initiative and the global context.

Genesis was awarded a contract to undertake a number of learning activities that will improve countries to accurately cost their HIV programmes, using national data systems, and interpret existing cost data, thereby enabling more effective planning, budgeting and ongoing decision-making.

From this work, Genesis produced guidance which enables users to select a costing methodology or tool which can assist policy makers and planners in finding the most appropriate costing method and tool for HIV and health programme financial planning. Download Guidance for selecting methods and tools for HIV economic studies here.

To further aid effective use this guidance, we have created an instructional video. The video below describes the guide structure and explains its purpose and functionality to facilitate ease of use:

We work with our clients to develop solutions aimed at improving the health of populations throughout sub-Saharan Africa. We provide experts with decades of experience in the design, implementation, costing and evaluation of health programmes and strengthening of health systems.

Capital markets in Africa face many challenges, including inadequate regulatory oversight, and can only play their part in Africa's development if these challenges are overcome.  Genesis conducted an evaluation of FSD Africa's Africa Regulatory Support Programme (ARSP) across seven African markets.

We work with governments, donors and private businesses to increase the flows of climate finance from higher to lower income countries, in fostering the role of the private sector in climate finance and in better preparedness of societies to address the climate change emergency proactively and adequately.

Genesis was contracted by the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ) to integrate a climate adaptation and risk financing concept into one of its Zambian projects. This is one of two reports from the project.

Genesis collaborated with the International Labour Organisation (ILO) on a transformative project – the development of a green employment diagnostic tool and guidelines at the country level to enhance the understanding of the interplay between the environment, employment and climate.
