We are Africa's Leading Impact Network.

Driving a Transformative Shift in Africa’s Sustainable Growth.

At AVPA, our mission is to increase the flow of capital into African social investments and support effective deployment for maximum impact. We empower impact actors—including investors and enablers—by offering a robust platform where they can connect with their peers, gain insights and learn from shared experiences, influence policy and practice, and scale up their interventions for greater impact.

It starts with a simple question...

Do you see Africa simply as a continent in need of aid, or as a vibrant land full of potential, where unique socio-economic and environmental challenges are opportunities for impactful investments? If you're an optimist eager to tap into this African advantage for sustainable growth, we're ready to collaborate with you.
