Powering Agriculture

In April 2018, AMF joined the Powering Agriculture Investment Alliance (known as ‘The Alliance’). The Alliance was formed to catalyze private sector financing for clean energy solutions that increase agriculture productivity and value in emerging economies.

In partnership with Value for Women and the William Davidson Institute, the Foundation deployed 3 M USD in grant funding from USAID (and co-funders including Sida, GIZ, Duke Energy, and OPIC) to help build investment capacity in target companies, with the goal of catalyzing 15 M+ USD in private investment over five years.

INVEST Gender TA Program

With support from USAID's Office of Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment Hub and USAID INVEST, AMF partnered with Value for Women to support targeted companies to carry out women's economic empowerment activities and improve their business performance. This entailed AMF and Value for Women providing business-first, gender-smart TA to a subset of the AlphaMundi Group portfolio of investees in Latin America and East Africa.

Gender Smart Enterprise Assistance Research Coalition (G-SEARCh)

G-SEARCh comprises a group of six like-minded impact investors committed to investing with a gender lens. Consortium members include Acumen, AlphaMundi, SEAF, Root Capital, AHL Venture Partners, and Shell Foundation. Consortium members support their respective portfolio companies and priority pipeline companies with grant capital to integrate gender considerations across their business models. Value for Women and William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan (WDI) are strategic partners in the consortium. The overall project goal is to demonstrate the business case for incorporating gender-smart interventions across early-growth stage SMEs in emerging markets.
