Each year, the Annual Development Effectiveness Review (ADER) assesses Africa’s development and the contribution that the African Development Bank (Bank) has made. The ADER is vital to the Bank’s reflection on its achievements and areas where it can improve its performance. This reflection is all the more vital this year, as the Bank reorients its operations to respond to the Covid-19 pandemic. The crisis requires us to ensure we use our resources and expertise more effectively than ever.

The ADER assesses progress against the Bank’s Results Measurement Framework (RMF) for 2016–2025. It monitors the contribution of our activities to our High 5s — Light up and Power Africa, Feed Africa, Industrialise Africa, Integrate Africa,and Improve the Quality of Life for the People of Africa — to our cross-cutting priorities, and to our long-term goals of promoting inclusive growth and green growth. The ADER also measures the progress we have made on strengthening our portfolio and reforming our internal systems and processes, to position us to deliver better development results for Africa.
