The African Development Bank Group’s mission is to help reduce poverty, improve living conditions for Africans and mobilize resources for the continent’s economic and social development. With this objective in mind, the institution aims at assisting African countries – individually and collectively - in their efforts to achieve sustainable economic development and social progress. Combating poverty is at the heart of the continent’s efforts to attain sustainable economic growth. To this end, the Bank seeks to stimulate and mobilize internal and external resources to promote investments as well as provide its regional member countries with technical and financial assistance.
We're a nonprofit social enterprise that equips smallholder farmers with the tools, knowledge, and innovations they need to prosper. Our solutions are proven to increase productivity, build resilience, and strengthen markets for farmers, and in 2024, we served 5.5 million farmers in 10 countries across Africa. On average, the farmers we serve increase their farm income by over 40% per year.
In everything we do, we put Farmers First.
