In partnership with the CLEAR Centre for Anglophone Africa at the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, and a multinational team of advisors, Jackson and Associates designed a professional course on methods for evaluating impact investment programs and projects.

A key partner in the curriculum development process was Greater Capital, a Cape Town-based advisory firm.
