The mission of the CEFEB (Centre for Financial, Economic and Banking Studies), AFD’s corporate university, is to transfer knowledge and showcase the best practices essential to the development-related activities of the players in the AFD ecosystem. As a tool to promote change, the CEFEB aims to build the capacities of individuals and organisations. Its activities centre on three methods of action: degree and skills-training programmes, discussions with development stakeholders, and promoting French expertise.
