DAI

EP is an M4P programme which facilitates agro-industrial growth and enables access to finance in Ethiopia. This will result in job and income opportunities for poor people, particularly women. The planned impact is to create 45,000 jobs (75% women) and increase incomes of 65,000 poor households. The project is funded by UK?s Department for International Development (DFID) and implemented by DAI and consortium partners First Consult/Ethiopia, Itad/UK, Enclude/NL, and BCaD. EP will identify key constraints and develop socially and environmentally responsible strategies working with industry actors to introduce new business models. This will lead to a better business enabling environment and investment generation in Ethiopia; creating jobs and income opportunities for the poor.
