The Annual Development Effectiveness Review (ADER), is the African Development Bank Group’s flagship results report, published annually to assess the Group’s contribution to sustainable development across the continent. Agulhas has been supporting its development since 2018.
This 2026 edition—the sixteenth in the series—is titled Mobilising Africa’s Development Financing at Scale. It offers a review of performance in 2025, the second year of implementation of the Bank Group’s Ten-Year Strategy (2024–2033), and its Results Management Framework.
The report covers key sectors, including Agriculture and Food Systems, Industry and Private Sector Development, Regional Integration and Trade, Energy and Power Systems and Human Development and Social Services, as well as cross-cutting priorities such as gender, youth, climate action, governance and resilience.
