Strategic focus areas
Scalable delivery model: Our goal is to become the go-to delivery model for SRH in Sub Saharan Africa. We aim to scale in 5 key countries - Kenya, Ethiopia, Uganda, Burkina Faso, and South Africa - by replicating the blueprint of our Kenya operations and ensuring we continue to provide the best value for money to our donors.
Trusted Results: In 3 years, we aim to be a leading player in the verification of outputs and outcomes. We will implement scalable and cost-efficient risk management processes by design in all markets and invest in technology to automate and strengthen our risk capabilities.
Driven by insights: Our goal is to become thought leaders on adolescent SRH. We will do this by building a culture that promotes data-driven decision-making, by empowering anyone to uncover insights in our data, and finally by being recognised for our data-driven approach.
Sustainable growth: : By 2025, we will have sustainably increased our revenue to reach an annual budget of €26m. We will focus on attracting large grants and core funding, positioning Triggerise for outcome-based funds, and building Triggerise Ventures, an enterprise testing the commercial viability of the Tiko platform.
Becoming Tiko: Our goal is to be a future-ready organization that continues to be adaptive and fast-moving for sustained success. We will transform Triggerise’s legal and governance structure, improve our programme delivery by favoring simplicity,and nurture organizational flexibility and learning.
