0Making trust the cornerstone of development
We build skills, facilitate access to finance and create the conditions for entrepreneurs to grow their businesses and boost the vitality of their communities.
THE PROBLEM
1.2 billion young people will reach working age over the next ten years. In Africa, there will be more of them than in the rest of the world combined.
OUR APPROACH
Our strategy aims to remove the barriers that prevent people who are typically under-represented from gaining full access to economic opportunities.
OUR METHOD
We work at three levels – individuals, communities and systems – to build more inclusive economies.
THE PROBLEM
1.2 billion young people will reach working age over the next ten years. In Africa, there will be more of them than in the rest of the world combined.
For hundreds of millions of people, starting a business is not a choice. It is the only option for building a future.
Today on the African continent, 80 to 90 per cent of jobs rely on micro-enterprises, which are often informal.
But without support or social protection, entrepreneurship remains fragile and can trap people in a state of heightened vulnerability to personal, economic and climate-related shocks.
Effectively supported, however, it can become a powerful driver of shared prosperity and resilience.
OUR APPROACH
PULSE supports those who are developing resilient businesses,
By providing them with access to technical and behavioural knowledge, tailored financing, a supportive environment and market access, while working with local stakeholders and value chains.
We also strengthen the organisations that support them on a day-to-day basis.
Our strategy aims to remove the barriers that prevent traditionally underrepresented people — particularly women, young people, and rural or peri-urban populations — from fully accessing economic opportunities.
It is not simply about enabling these people to move out of poverty, but about creating the conditions for shared and sustainable prosperity.
OUR METHOD
Believe in yourself.
Act collectively.
Transform the system.
We act at three levels : individuals, collectives and systems, to build more inclusive economies.
