A new IFC report proposes innovative power market structures that can help achieve a sustainable, affordable energy future for all.

Regional Director - Eastern Africa at IFC - International Finance Corporation - World Bank Group
Addressing the complex and multifaceted challenges refugees and host communities face requires creative and comprehensive solutions—and strong partnerships. Last week, IFC and UNHCR hosted a workshop in Nairobi bringing together our teams from across Eastern Africa to explore areas where we can expand our shared work to foster long-term economic resilience. Thank you to my co-hosts Mamadou Dian Balde, Chansa kapaya and Jumoke Jagun-Dokunmu. Over the last few years, IFC - International Finance Corporation and UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, have established a strong collaborative relationship in Eastern Africa, and I am keen to evolve and further strengthen this partnership. By combining the strengths of humanitarian organizations with private-sector solutions, our partnership can create opportunities for refugees and their host communities. In Kenya, for example, IFC and UNHCR have been working together in the Kakuma Refugee Hosting Area through the KKCF - Kakuma Kalobeyei Challenge Fund (KKCF), IFC’s first refugee and host community focused program in sub-Saharan Africa. The program is also supported by the Turkana County Government. Through the program, 126 businesses have been supported, over 1,200 jobs created, and more than 200,000 people gained access to essential services like electricity and healthcare. During our meeting last week, I had a great chat with Mamadou on the sidelines about why this partnership is so important. Tune in ⬇️ IFC UNHCR Joint Initiative
