grant Background

About the Funding Agency

The Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation, or Norad, is a government agency in Norway. It operates under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The agency helps manage Norway's foreign aid and works to reduce global poverty.

Norad focuses on important global issues like sustainable development, health, education, and climate change. It gives funding and support to local and international partner organizations. These groups carry out projects that improve living conditions in developing countries.

The agency also checks how well these aid programs work. It tests the results to see if the money helps people as planned. Norad shares these reports openly so the public can see the impact of Norway's aid.

Locations

Congo

The Republic of the Congo is pursuing reforms and investment to animate its energy sector and broader infrastructure landscape, including the introduction of a new gas code to attract investment into gas exploration and development. While the hydrocarbon sector remains central, government strategy is increasingly focused on diversifying energy infrastructure to support domestic needs and industrial applications. Enhancing legal frameworks, expanding infrastructure financing and improving governance are critical to unlocking sustained private capital and translating resource-sector growth into broader economic development.

Ethiopia

Ethiopia’s infrastructure strategy has been transformative, centered on large-scale energy, transport and industrial development projects that support economic transformation. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam - Africa’s largest hydroelectric facility - exemplifies national efforts to expand energy access and build export capacity, while ambitious transport initiatives include expanding expressways and planning what is set to be Africa’s largest new airport. Free trade zones and enhanced logistics corridors aim to improve competitiveness and regional integration. Continued reforms to strengthen institutional capacity, attract investment, and extend services to rural areas are essential to sustaining inclusive growth.
