IFE discusses its regional call for proposals for economic growth in Africa

Investing for Employment (IFE) held a media roundtable to further elaborate its goals and role in supporting the economy in several African countries and creating new job opportunities for growth prospects. IFE is an investment facility founded by KFW Development Bank on behalf of the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). 

 

Earlier in November, IFE launched a Call for Proposals in 8 countries including Egypt, Ethiopia, Cote D’Ivoire, Ghana, Rwanda, Senegal, Tunisia, and Morocco inviting companies as well as public entities to submit project proposals that contribute to sustainable job creation in the private sector. The launch of this initiative stems from a thorough understanding of the various challenges and barriers investors can face in addition to a strong belief in the potential of the African countries and their economic development.
