Since 1991, the African Capacity Building Foundation (ACBF) has supported and invested in efforts to build human and institutional capacity across Africa to meet development needs at the country, regional and continental levels. The mandate of ACBF is to enhance skills, strengthen institutions and promote regional integration. To achieve this, ACBF supports capacity development through investments, technical support, knowledge generation and sharing across Africa. ACBF not only invests through extending grants, it also provides grant management and technical assistance throughout the implementation of the capacity development interventions, catalyzing scalable change in Africa. To date the Foundation has empowered governments, parliaments, civic society, private sector and higher education institutions in more than 45 countries and 6 regional economic communities. ACBF has invested in over 321 capacity development projects, produced 73 knowledge products advocating emerging development issues and has committed more than USD700 million to capacity development in Sub-Saharan Africa to date.
