Background
This document is an annexure to the Regional Report on the Regional Program on Enhancing the Investment Climate for the Economic Empowerment of Refugee, Returnee and Host and Return Community Women in the East and Horn of Africa and Great Lakes (EHAGL) Region.
It has been compiled under a program funded by the African Development Bank (AfDB) and produced under the management of a Steering Committee comprising the UNHCR Regional Bureau for East and the Horn of Africa and the Great Lakes Region, the East African Community (EAC) Secretariat, and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) Secretariat.
This document serves as an Annex to the program’s Final Regional Report. While the Report itself reviews the challenges facing the affected communities in the region, this annex is a forward-looking document proposing a roadmap for actions to be taken by various member governments of the region as well as supporting entities, including the African Development Bank. The proposed actions aim to address the challenges identified in the main report. Phase 1 of the program was implemented from September 2022 to December 2024.
