We advocate for social protection to reduce poverty and arrest vulnerability. We are keen to diminish people’s exposure to risks and enhance their capacity to manage economic and social shocks, including unemployment, exclusion, marginalization, disability and old age. We recognize that the Covid-19 pandemic exacerbated these vulnerabilities and we design solutions with communities to strengthen and sustain resilience. The African Renaissance Trust strives to enhance public financial management systems, making them more transparent, accountable and responsive to the needs of vulnerable populations. By promoting financial inclusion, we seek to bridge the gap between marginalized communities and the essential financial services they need fostering a landscape of shared prosperity and equitable growth for all.
