Africa Forum on Displacement: Private Sector Solutions

Building upon the achievements accomplished in the inaugural Forum in Kigali, Rwanda in 2021, the Amahoro Coalition, UNHCR, and Inkomoko will co-host the second edition of the Africa Forum on Displacement (AFD). The Forum is supported by IKEA Foundation and the Mastercard Foundation. AFD 2023 is expected to facilitate the announcement of impactful pledges and contributions, explore private sector opportunities, highlight challenges, and offer recommendations that will promote forcibly displaced persons’ inclusivity for durable and sustainable solutions in line with the objectives of the Global Compact on Refugees. Throughout the Forum, private sector stakeholders will take stock of the pledges made in the previous edition and the implementation status while making renewed pledges. The pledges and contributions announced at the 2023 Forum in Accra, Ghana, will serve as a precursor of Africa’s private sector engagement ahead of the Global Refugee Forum, which will take place in Geneva, Switzerland, in December 2023.
