Our Organisation
Established in May 2011, AEDS is an economic think tank actively involved in co-creation of solutions to Africa’s challenges through evidence-based policy advisory and capacity building of economic units in Africa.
AEDS work with governments, private sector, non-governmental organizations, the civil society and communities in various areas of economic development. Using a co-creative approach, we work hands on in areas of policy research, advocacy, macroeconomic analysis and economic modeling, capacity building and development planning. With a firm belief that the policy environment creates a framework to spur Africa’s growth and prosperity, AEDS works to fill the fundamental void in economic policy research, policy analysis and capacity building for effective in-country contributions to Africa’s policy and development processes.
AEDS is purpose-driven: Our work is not just a job, it’s our purpose. We deeply care about economic transformation of poor and marginalised people and commit to serving clients in a way that realises transformation.
