In it Together

A global pandemic and working remotely precipitated feelings of anxiety and isolation from family members, friends and colleagues. In unfamiliar territory and faced with the realization that we are in this together, our spirit of togetherness shone through.

Collaboration

Living through a very disruptive pandemic and realizing that we are in it together, requires unprecedented collaboration. The year 2020 also brought with it enormous opportunities.

Building Resilience

2020 challenged us to re-examine our operational systems and their adaptability.

Celebrating the Wins

In spite of disruptions, remote working and uncertainty, there were also many bright spots that the Center was able to celebrate.

Financials

Our Center’s commitment to transparency and accountability has led to consistent unqualified audits, even as we implement our largest-ever and most diverse portfolio of projects. Despite a challenging year that called for adjustments in operational budgets and constant evaluation of the Center’s financial health in the pandemic, we pulled through safely, albeit with a discernible decline in income and expenditure compared to 2019.
Take a look!

Funders & Partners

To our funders, we thank you for standing in solidarity with us and extending the financial flexibility needed to make necessary adjustments in our programmatic areas of work.

To our partners, your belief in the true spirit of collaboration transcended many obstacles. With your support, we explored new frontiers, and with a collective voice, we have worked towards what matters most for the African people.
