AKF works with our wide network of partners to help communities tackle economic exclusion and unemployment and improve the economic well-being of women and men, particularly youth. We focus our support on promoting in-demand, future-facing skills and work opportunities, while promoting local entrepreneurship and SMEs through training, mentoring, and access to finance. Our flagship enterprise development initiative Accelerate Prosperity has already boosted more than 3,400 small and growing businesses, while our employable skills program and Future of Work initiative – which seeks to prepare youth for digital and green jobs – is benefiting more than 20,000 individuals per year, over half of whom are women.
