TrustAfrica


		TrustAfrica is an independent foundation that strives to secure the conditions for democracy and equitable development throughout the continent. Led by Africans, we convene dialogues, catalyze ideas, and provide grants and technical assistance to organizations working to advance these goals.

African Regional Organizations

After conducting a survey of 150 African regional organizations, TrustAfrica has developed an online database to help funders, scholars, policy makers, and civil society leaders to stay informed about this vital sector.

Fostering Private Sector Development

In the first two rounds of support from our ICBE Research Fund, we have awarded approximately US$1,481,000 to 53 teams in 16 African countries conducting research on business environments and investment climates in Africa. We are now at work assessing the program and developing a set of case studies.
