Programme Overview

TRANSFORM is an impact accelerator led by Unilever, the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) and EY.

We unite corporates, donors, investors, and academics to support visionary impact enterprises across Africa, Asia and beyond. Together, we test and scale new solutions that tackle environmental challenges, improve health and well-being, and build inclusive economies.

We are looking for impact enterprises in Ghana or Nigeria that are working on either of the following areas:

• Protect and Regenerate Nature – projects that regenerate nature or increase the financial resilience of female smallholder farmers working in palm in Ghana, or farmers in Nigeria growing fonio, turmeric, onions or garlic whose produce could be used in our products.
• Raise Living Standards – Training or financial products like credit that can increase the livelihoods of shopkeepers or direct sales agents.
• Waste Free World– PET & flexible recycling technologies and businesses working on fair wages and conditions for waste collectors.

Stand a chance to win grant funding of £100k in addition to in-kind support from Unilever and EY.
