High 5, African Development Bank

The African Development Bank (AfDB) has unveiled a landmark initiative (The High 5, within the context of the Bank’s Ten-Year Strategy) to accelerate Africa's development over the next 10 years. Under this initiative, the High 5 priority areas of focus in Africa—to light up and power Africa, feed Africa, integrate Africa, industrialize Africa, and improve the quality of life for the people of Africa—form a blueprint for African countries to embark on a course of sustainable transformation.
