Private Sector Mobilization in Francophone Africa: Project Overview
In 2005, CCA signed a two year contract with The World Bank Multi-Country HIV/AIDS Program (MAP) for Africa to strengthen the private sector response to HIV/AIDS in coordination with the public sector in four Francophone Africa countries: DRC, Mali, Mauritania and Senegal.
The private sector mobilization project’s overall objective is to strengthen private engagement in national HIV/AIDS efforts, including enhancing private sector access to available funding. This project will provide country-level technical assistance to create a framework to achieve this objective.
One of the key strategies for engaging the private sector is through the development of national business coalitions against HIV/AIDS and facilitating public-private partnerships with other stakeholders such as international donor agencies, foundations, global NGOs and international corporations. Thus, the project will enhance coordination between key stakeholders including i) NAC secretariats and their private sector focal points; ii) private sector organizations such as labor unions, employer federations, business council representatives and target companies; and iii) donor agencies and other development partners.
