African Center for Economic Transformation

Mission & Goals

Our vision is an economically transformed Africa within a generation and our mission is to help government and the private sector deliver economic transformation that improves lives. We help deliver African economic transformation, which we define as growth with DEPTH - through a unique, integrated approach. In our view, growth is not enough. Africa must also transform through diversified production, competitive exports, increased productivity, upgraded technology, and improved human well-being. Growth with DEPTH is a framework developed by ACET that turns transformation from a concept into a practical policy agenda. We have used Growth with DEPTH to help Africa’s public and private sectors address the policy and institutional barriers that hamper sustained growth.
