The Mission 300 partners interact all day, every day, through technical working groups, leadership coordination groups, joint communications and fundraising teams, and of course through emails, WhatsApp and phone calls. We’ve also engaged youth organizations like YES, who know that achieving Mission 300 is the only way that Africa’s growing population will have productive jobs. Above all, Mission 300 only succeeds if the private sector invests. In response, Mission 300 (with the International Finance Corporation in the lead) established Project Zafiri, a $300 million equity vehicle. Finally, we funded the Mission 300 Expert Roster in partnership with Allied Talent Partners to provide CDMUs with specialized, short-term expertise.
