UNDP Namibia and the Ministry of Industrialization and Trade (MIT) have jointly established a Sustainable Development Goals Impact Investment Facility (SDGIIF). The SDGIIF will be used to provide mentorship grants and debt financing to women and youths in business, social enterprises and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) to address the challenges of the financing gap to MSMEs The International Finance Corporation (IFC) in 2017 estimated the annual financing gap to MSMEs in Namibia to be $1.8 billion.
The impact investment fund platform is aimed at accelerating the implementation of SDGs with the support of the private sector. Through dynamic partnerships, the programme intends to encourage the private sector to transform their traditional corporate social responsibility (CSR) into modern corporate social investments (CSI) that have a greater and standardize measurable impact. This partnership will allow corporates to invest in social impact micro and small enterprises with the aim of turning them into potential suppliers for local and regional value chains.
UNDP Namibia invites suitably qualified and experienced Service Providers to submit proposals to Create and Develop the SDGIIF Mobile Application in accordance with the given scope (RFP/TOR) to support the Sustainable Development Goals Impact Investment Facility (SDGIIF) programme.
