About us

AFID was established in 2020 with the aim of adopting a strategic approach focused on inclusivity and sustainability. AFID integrates institutional development, accreditation and quality assurance, capacity building and training, as well as technical consultancy, research, and evaluation.

We believe that synergy among these areas particularly in the health and education sectors, and through the promotion of sustainable development principles is the key to achieving lasting impact. This integrated approach enhances institutional efficiency and elevates the performance of individuals and communities.

Our team comprises a distinguished group of experts and consultants who operate using evidence-based methodologies and scientific tools. We employ effective communication strategies to empower our partners in health, education, and sustainable development to achieve tangible outcomes that foster institutional excellence, innovation, and enduring positive impact at the individual, institutional, and societal levels.
