The TeamThe Global Development (GD) Division includes a diverse range of program areas aimed at finding creative ways to ensure solutions and products get into the hands of people in low-income countries who need them most. We focus on areas with the potential for high-impact, sustainable solutions that can reach millions of people. The GD Division encompasses our India Country Office and the Africa Team, with physical offices in Johannesburg, Addis Ababa, Abuja, and Nairobi.

We engage with leaders of these institutions, participate in governance through membership on boards and committees and in advisory groups, and make investments to improve the operational effectiveness of the institutions and the impact of their programs. While many teams within the foundation work with these GHIs, the GHAF team specifically works to: 1. Bring deep knowledge of the strategic, governance, operational and programmatic approaches of and across the GHIs to inform foundation strategies and engagements; 2. Drive internal alignment on foundation-wide strategic priorities, objectives, outcomes, and accountabilities with these GHIs; and 3.
