A more traditional focus for donors, private-sector development remains a key area of activity, where there is increasing emphasis on measuring impact and proving value for money.

Our work has focused on:

  • Comparing donor approaches to private-sector development.
  • Reviewing approaches to evaluation of private-sector development interventions.
  • Interventions to promote youth entrepreneurship.
  • Value-chain-development approaches.
  • Employment / job-creation interventions.
