What We Do
AGAG facilitates connections and knowledge building and sharing in the following ways: We hold an annual retreat, which provide grantmakers the opportunity to meet with and learn from one another in an intimate setting. We organize regular conference calls and webinars to build knowledge on a range of topics affecting grantmaking in Africa. We commission research on topics important to Africa grantmakers. We hold informal and formal gatherings on specific issues. We provide a searchable database of our members that both grantmakers and grantseekers find useful MembershipThe Africa Grantmakers Affinity Group (AGAG) provides a critical space for Africa grantmakers to come together to share and learn. Here's why funders seek out AGAG: Africa is a complex, varied and challenging continent to work in. Funders cannot hope to make the impact they want without learning from one another. Creating partnerships and collaborations is a key part of a grantmakers work. Meeting one another in a group of fellow grantmakers can be the first step for those collaborations to begin to take place. Professional development, especially for people new to Africa, is vital. Many program officers come to work in Africa with little or no background in the continent. They have a knowledge gap that can best be addressed by tapping the experience of colleagues in the field. AGAG is a unique forum. There is no other forum designed to promote learning and sharing among grantmakers funding in Africa.
