Location

Client

Sector

Nigeria has some of the most significant health challenges in the world and continues to record some of the highest global burdens for maternal and child morbidity and mortality. LAFIYA aims to address these challenges by encouraging the government to increase resources invested in health, improving health services’ effectiveness and efficiency, and reducing the total fertility rate. In doing so, the program is saving lives, reducing suffering, and improving economic prospects for the poorest and most vulnerable people across the country.

KIM is facilitating USD 520 million in investment for key sectors of Kenya’s economy, including agriculture, and for regional trade and investment opportunities under the Prosper Africa initiative. The program supports the mobilisation of private investment and accelerates enterprise-driven development. Twice in 2022, the program surpassed its targets for sourcing capital for small and medium-sized enterprises, nearly a year before the project is due to close, as the team continues to bridge the gap between small businesses and investors.

“Health is not just a fundamental human right, but also a prerequisite for progress and development. As much of our work across Africa continues to prioritise the improvement of health across the continent, we see it as the foundation upon which we can build brighter futures. I’m proud of the work our teams and programs continue to do both in healthcare and beyond as we continue to build a more prosperous Africa.”
