ECONOMIC GROWTH
Equitable economic growth can improve lives, drive development, and alleviate poverty in rural and urban areas. GADC Economic Growth practice champions policies that transform the economic environment at the local, regional, and national levels while creating sustainable economic opportunities for communities and businesses. Combined with effective infrastructure, a strong legal framework, and well-functioning markets, strong policy creates an environment that spurs private enterprise growth and expands employment opportunities. Supporting both the public and private sectors, GADC services span a broad range of technical areas, from enterprise development and economic governance to trade and market expansion to the creation of a stronger business-enabling environment.
GADC technical assistance programs strengthen regulatory systems, reform public administration, and modernize financial sectors by establishing and enforcing critical market-supporting institutions. Our economic governance specialists provide capacity-building services to government institutions, including economy and finance ministries, treasury offices, tax and auditing departments, national statistics institutes, and export and investment bodies.
We help governments, business representatives, and lawyers to reform commercial laws and regulations, targeting policy constraints and offering solutions. By offering training to government, legal, and private sector actors on the application of commercial laws, we facilitate legal implementation. We also help government institutions improve efficiency around business-related policy implementation to reduce bottlenecks and improve the overall enabling environment.
GADC works with the private sector—including small- and medium-sized enterprises (SME)—around the globe to increase private sector growth, enhance competitiveness, and encourage economic participation. We provide tailored solutions to promote an enabling business environment and regulatory reform, enhance SME development and competitiveness, promote cluster development and value chains, and support entrepreneurship and innovation.
We help firms become more productive through value-enhancing supply chains, greater compliance with international trade standards, and improved access to business support services and financial resources—enabling them to improve efficiency, access new markets, and increase profitability. We also offer extensive support to Public-Private Partnerships, including developing project pipelines, regulatory and policy reviews, support to procurement and project bankability, transaction advisory work, and performance monitoring.
GADC works to improve the social and economic well-being of people living in rural areas of the world, by developing the agriculture sector and economic activities that increase and diversify sources of income and sustain livelihoods. Our team collaborates with local stakeholders to develop and implement programs that foster enterprise growth, employment, and stability. Our work helps farmers and entrepreneurs, supports cash-for-work community infrastructure initiatives, and delivers vocational education programs that teach critical skills to vulnerable groups.
We work with local partners to remove barriers to economic participation, rehabilitate critical market-supporting infrastructure, promote a business-enabling environment, and build administrative capacity to manage change. We support land management and reform, agriculture policy, development of agricultural value chains and access to markets, extension services, smart agriculture, livestock development, fisheries and aquaculture, and nutrition and food security programs.
HUMAN DEVELOPMENT
GADC, we implement the building blocks of sustainable human development, providing access to equitable health, education, and social protection for all citizens. Human Development practice transforms outcomes for communities through advancements in education, health and nutrition services, and gender and social inclusion.
We work with citizens, schools, health centres, and governments to increase access to quality education and health services. Throughout program life cycles, we consider complex gender relations and the roles that women and men play in households, communities, businesses, and government. Our team employs strategies that inclusively and meaningfully consider the individuals we work with—leading to effective, sustainable development outcomes.
GADC supports educational systems at the national, regional, and local levels, enhancing institutional capacity to provide formal, informal, vocational and technical learning in primary and early childhood through secondary school and adult education. We work at national levels with government ministries to formulate policy, develop curricula, and conduct teacher education and at local levels local schools apply national curricula, develop training, and support individual school management.
We address effective gender, language, and ethnic diversity in educational materials and curriculum design, and our projects increase the employability of disadvantaged groups, reduce social and gender discrimination, and provide support to civil society organizations. We improve teacher training, recruitment, and deployment and support governments by enhancing institutional capacity and developing vocational training programs that prepare individuals to face the requirements of a changing market, ensuring future competitiveness and creating new employment opportunities.
These efforts are complemented by capacity-building projects aimed at designing labour market measures and defining employment strategies that ensure socioeconomic development and poverty reduction.
GADC also supports health and nutrition programs to increase positive outcomes for children and adults across the globe. Poor nutrition is a leading threat to world health, contributing to maternal and child mortality and cyclical poverty. Our programming strengthens health systems and private and non-profit health solutions while building healthcare capacity through reform, training, and education. We build digital solutions to create access to health data and analytics. We work to reduce stunting and increase nutrition for children by strengthening governance, developing country nutrition programming, and increasing knowledge sharing.
Gender and social inclusion are at the heart of our work. GADC understands that individuals have unique needs, rights, and roles due to gender, class, ethnicity, disability, or sexual orientation. By understanding the complex nature of gender roles and social relations, we design activities that respond to the diverse range of needs and deliver inclusive benefits.
We work with the government, private sector, and civil society to integrate gender equality and women’s empowerment into political, economic, and environmental programming, including in conflict-affected regions. Adept at working in challenging environments and identifying context-specific solutions, our gender and social inclusion experts provide our partners with fresh, innovative approaches, maximizing equitable impact while contributing to transformative outcomes and sustainable change in gender and social relations.
We also help communities, businesses, and governments assess the social inclusion impact of their projects and investments, mitigate risks, and conceptualize and deliver investment initiatives for positive social impact, particularly in the infrastructure sector.
INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT
Infrastructure is the backbone of every economy around the world and governments are actively looking for the most cost-effective way to replace or refurbish ageing infrastructure or develop new infrastructure projects to meet ever-increasing public demand.
Infrastructure and public-private partnership projects come in all sizes, types of development and combinations of stakeholders. Projects and project financing now involve more cross-border transactions, multiple levels of government and input from stakeholders. Delivery models are also adapting to a fast-paced environment where procuring authorities are seeking greater flexibility and collaboration with the private sector – alternative delivery models such as progressive alliance models, alternative finance, and procurement and other approaches are being utilized with increasing frequency.
GADC has been at the forefront of developing alternative delivery models and as such is very well placed to advise all project stakeholders on the implications of these shifting procurement approaches.
Our team works with communities to design and develop climate-resilient infrastructure for a sustainable future. Sustainable energy, water, and climate solutions are a global imperative. Improved access to basic infrastructure—including power, water, sanitation, roads, and information and communication technology—is a catalyst for economic growth.
To help communities overcome increasing pressure from climate change, urban and industrial growth, and deforestation, GADC collaborates with stakeholders to develop innovative solutions that improve resiliency, accelerate access to safe water and sustainable sanitation, improve environmental management, build sustainable infrastructure and transportation, promote clean energy solutions, and mainstream green economy solutions.
Through locally led initiatives grounded in data and quantitative analysis, we facilitate the development of improved policies and practices, strengthen stakeholder capacity, and create partnerships with the private sector and other stakeholders to bring innovation to scale.
We engage with the Project Partners through the life cycle of the project ensuring all the necessary pre-project qualification, project implementation and operational requirements are addressed. We help in the following areas.
- Analysis of proposals for new infrastructure projects

You and your team carefully select your strategic investments to ensure that your corporate goals and objectives are met or exceeded.

We participate in most of the country’s development projects, knowing that Africa is in a strong position to meet its development goals and retain its position as a Continent growing with infrastructures.
