One of the key constraints for economic development in the region is the lack of appropriate infrastructure. PPDF wants to respond to this identified shortcoming by preparing a pipeline of regional economic infrastructure projects and market them for financing to private investors, international financial institutions and donors.

Identified projects to be developed will focus on generation and distribution of energy across the region as well as efficiency and maintenance of transport networks.
