A gender-lens framework, made live.

Kuramo Foundation for Sustainable Development began with a clear ambition: its gender-lens initiative should run on measured indicators from the first day, not wait for a retrospective impact report after the work had already started.

Turn a framework into a working view

Kuramo supports early-stage female fund managers through the Moremi Accelerator Program, a Warehousing Facility, and the Moremi Fund. The team had already built an internal framework for the work. The challenge was to make that framework usable in operations.

They needed a connected view of the indicators behind access to funding, gender equality, and entrepreneurial growth—not a framework living separately from the evidence.

Build the dashboard before the launch

Sopact helped operationalise the framework across data strategy, collection, and analysis. Manual inputs were brought into one place and mapped to a live dashboard that the team could use from the programme’s first day.

This made the framework part of the operating rhythm: the Accelerator, Warehousing Facility, and Moremi Fund can each contribute evidence to a view that stays connected across the initiative.

Make gender-lens evidence usable

The result is a live evidence base for Kuramo’s work to bridge the gender-finance gap in Africa. The team can see the underlying indicators as the work happens, rather than reconstructing the story after the fact.
