It is remarkable how much can be learned from sharing knowledge and experience in order to separate what works from what doesn’t. One of the Learning Lab’s main aims is to provide and exchange information in a simple, standardised and digestible form. Precisely with this in mind:

1. The BoP learning lab organises regular workshops. The workshops function as a platform to exchange ideas and info, where businesses are invited to present their initiatives and approaches to an audience of corporates, academics, representatives of civil society, government and NGOs.

2. Our regular fact sheets are meant to provide the reader with a 10-minute snapshot of corporate initiatives, sectorial challenges and opportunities, and support provided by civil society or the public sector to socio-economic progress in Southern Africa.
