The programme supports the preparation of strategic infrastructure investments in Sub-Saharan Africa, contributing to the development of public and private sector infrastructure projects. We prioritise areas such as mobility, energy, climate, digital and healthcare.
Developed in collaboration with the European Commission, this programme forms part of the EIB’s contribution to the Global Gateway initiative and has the goal of filling the “last mile” preparation needs before a project can be ready to receive EIB financing.
