SWE-2012-002: Bokra a7la Tomorrow will be Better: Embodying Political Agency after the Egyptian Revolution SWE-2012-002: Bokra a7la Tomorrow will be Better: Embodying Political Agency after the Egyptian Revolution This anthropological project explores non elite Egyptian youths as political actors including their emotions, thoughts and modes of actions after the Egyptian revolution. Theoretically, it will examine how embodied agency is formulated in Egypts transformation in relation to how it was the present the imagined future. The proposed research focuses upon the way in which youths understand and respond to Egypts complex changes, including their perception of democracy, gender equality and human rights, and it looks particularly at how these actors contest or embrace the transition. The proposed project is expected to generate theoretical and ethnographic insights into the young non elite Cairenes as political actors and to throw light on the complexities of transformation among a poorly investigated group. A qualitative and ethically sensitive methodology will guide the research.

Global Partners The Global Partnership for Ethiopia BV (GPE or the Company) was in May 2021 announced as the sole winner of Ethiopias unified telecommunication service license following a competitive bid process run by the Government of Ethiopia and the Ethiopian Communications Authority (ECA). Subsequently, the GPE formed Safaricom Telecommunications Ethiopia private limited company (STE or Operating Company), which was granted the License on 9 July 2021 by the ECA. The License authorizes STE to build, own and operate a nationwide public telecommunication network and offer telecommunications services. The Company and STE plan to roll out, launch and operate its 2G, 3G, 4G networks across the country with 5G in selected areas, enabling it to provide increased access to quality mobile and fixed connectivity solutions for individuals, corporates, and the government throughout the country (the Project). The project aims to support the transformation of a series of SDG verticals via the provision of advanced telecom services dedicated to such verticals, incl. education, agriculture, medical, manufacturing, and tourism. The Project aligns with the governments plan to digitise the Ethiopian economy and shift from a state-oriented development model to more liberalized models, including within the telecommunication sector.      The proposed IFC transaction comprises an up to USD 160 million equity investment in the Company to help fund the STEs capex requirement. A separate debt package is also being discussed. IFCs investment will support STEs countrywide mobile network roll-out and help position the Company to comply with the terms of its license, which outlines the requirement for (i) specified population and geographic coverage targets and (ii) reasonable tariffs, universal accessibility and teledensity target, amongst others. IFC will also be supporting a group of regional champions and leading global emerging market investors, including the Voda Family (Vodafone Group, Vodacom Group, and Safaricom plc), Sumitomo Corporation and British International Investment (the Consortium), in delivering an enhanced digital economy for Ethiopia. The Project is expected to result in increased access to quality connectivity for individuals and businesses in Ethiopia, a country with large connectivity gaps. These outcomes will be achieved by rolling out fixed and mobile networks, including using a mix of 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G technology, with the objective to rapidly increase population coverage by 2029. Beyond the Project, this investment has the potential to create a competitive market for telecommunication services in Ethiopia via an enabling legal framework and competition facilitated by the entry of a new private sector-led operator, as part of the liberalization of the telecommunications sector.
GTST Ethiopia Trade Facility IFC, BNP Paribas (BNPP) and other commercial lenders are jointly considering establishing a trade finance facility of up to US$ 400 million to finance importation of refined oil products in Ethiopia.  The facility will provide an international energy trading company with an import finance facility to maintain the supply of oil products in Ethiopia over a period of up to two years. This facility will help secure fuel supply to the second most populated country in Sub-Saharan Africa and one of the fastest growing economies in Africa. A steady supply of fuel through reliable channels is critical to ensure a better pricing, and therefore control inflation. Of the total facility amount, IFCs exposure will be up to US$ 75 million through a risk sharing arrangement. The proposed investment will have significant development impacts as follows:  (a) Maintain the availability of trade finance for trade businesses in Ethiopia. The Project is expected to finance about US$ 1 billion of imports of oil products to Ethiopia per year. This will ensure stability in supply of energy products into an IDA economy.  (b) Ensuring availability of energy products is critical for retail and industrial consumption, power and transportation sectors.   (c) Support to Private Sector - The facility will indirectly support the business activities of private marketing and distribution companies in the downstream oil sector.
Infinity Medical The absence of safe, effective and well-functioning medical devices and equipment impairs health service provision, leads to poor patient outcomes and poses substantial health system risks.    IFCs funding will allow In?nity, a leading medical equipment distributor and service provider primarily in Ethiopia, to:   Fill medical equipment orders from hospitals and clinics, including emergency care solutions.   Provide the patient capital needed to maintain the necessary inventory level to minimize hospital equipment downtime and promote efficient use in both public and private hospitals.   Continue to provide customers with good credit standing and steady patient flow, buy-now-pay-later option. Project level impact: Improved access to high quality equipment for patients in Ethiopia. At present, access to foreign currency has limited private hospitals' ability to access high quality medical equipment which needs to be imported. The Project will expand Infinity's capacity to import and distribute medical equipment. The client will also provide training in the use of equipment to the hospitals/ clinics, ensuring patients receive adequate services.
Market level impact: The Project will expand access to quality medical equipment for private, in addition to public, health services providers in Ethiopia. The equal footing through access to equipment via finance for both public and private, should help contribute to positioning the emerging private sector, increasing demand for private health services, and contributing to the development of a more competitive health services market.
Shemu Oils Project The proposed investment is an A Loan of up to US$10 million equivalent in Ethiopian Birr (ETB) to Shemu PLC (Shemu or the Company), a leading manufacturer of edible oil and household goods (soap & detergent) based in Dire Dawa in eastern Ethiopia. IFCs financing will support Shemu to expand its refinery capacity to 950 TPD (tons per day) and improve operational efficiency through investing in logistical assets (Project). The Project may be supported by the IDA20 Private Sector Window Local Currency Facility (IDA PSW LCF), subject to obtaining the necessary internal approvals, as described in the Blended Finance section. Project level impact: i) Economy-wide: The Project supports Ethiopias ambition to develop a competitive industry by improving the efficiencies of its refined oil operations and supporting marketing efficiency.  Local refining will support domestic value addition and associated job creation; ii) Stakeholders: The Project is expected to increase the volume of fortified refined edible oil and therefore contribute to addressing Ethiopias challenges of food security and nutrition. With the proposed expanded production of the refinery, the Company will continue to produce refined oil fortified with vitamins A and D which are essential micronutrients to humans, which contributes to reducing the prevalence of micronutrient deficiencies among consumers. 

Market level impact: i) Competitiveness:  The Project will contribute to addressing the challenges of CPO supply chain disruptions by establishing backward integration of local peanut supply chain to increasingly source peanuts from smallholder farmers and gradually replace CPO imports. This will demonstrate the possibility of import substitution if the companies remain competitive in terms of selling oil at prices below or at par with the import parity prices. Other market players are likely to follow suit by also sourcing edible oils locally to remain competitive. ii)  With the support of IFCs advisory, the adoption of improved peanut production practices will be demonstrated by the Company rolling out a farmer support program to help farmers achieve higher productivity through the introduction of improved production technologies (e.g., improved seed varieties), customized fertilizers, input financing system, and training on pre-and post-harvest management practices to improve peanut quality and reduce aflatoxin contamination.
