Tender Details
Request for proposals are invited for Terms of Reference for Development & Packaging of Training Curricula for Micro and Small Businesses in Kakuma and Kalobeyei.
The AECF is a not-for-profit company limited by guarantee, registered in Mauritius. The AECF (formerly the “Africa Enterprise Challenge Fund”) is a Pan-African development institution that seeks to alleviate poverty in sub - Saharan Africa by unlocking the power of the private sector to impact rural and marginalized communities. AECF-s current strategy to 2020, has a specific focus on gender[1] and working in post-conflict and fragile environments across Africa.
Launched in 2008, alongside the World Economic Forum with initial funding of US$ 34 million from 3 funders, AECF has grown to a US$ 356 million multi-donors fund. With the vision to build a “Prosperous and Enterprising Rural Africa”, the AECF has supported 267 businesses across 26 countries in Africa and has impacted the lives of 19 million people through jobs and increased household incomes, generating a total net development impact of US$ 354 million in 2018 alone - reaching cumulative impact of US$ 1 billion and leveraging over US$ 658 million in matching funds from the private sector (attracted US$ 5 for every US$ 1 invested).
In 2018, AECF raised an additional US$ 100 million from its existing funders, showing their confidence in the mission of the institution. Of this, USD 6.5 million is being invested in Kenya. This funding is expected to complement the Kakuma Kalobeyei Challenge Fund (KKCF) in supporting private sector companies willing to invest in humanitarian markets - Kakuma. AECF has signed an agreement with IFC for the implementation of this program. The programme will enable better economic integration and self-reliance of refugees and host communities in the Kakuma and Kalobeyei area. The target area is Kakuma Town, Kakuma Refugee camp and Kalobeyei settlement in Turkana County, Kenya.
