The mission of Africa Strategic Communications Department (AFRSC) is to enhance the impact of the World Bank's development assistance and quality of debate around development issues in Africa through strategic and effective communications. This includes fostering better communications within Africa countries and partner countries between policy makers and internal stakeholders as well as outreach by the World Bank to civil society in the Africa region, part 1 constituencies, and regional organizations. AFRSC also works with other Bank communications colleagues to reach audiences outside Africa that influence Africa progress. The region’s website is an integral part of the communications and outreach effort. It informs the world of who we are and what we do, raises awareness of development issues, and shares development knowledge with our clients. In addition, the site builds the Bank’s global brand by ensuring transparency in our policies, programs, and projects.
