Case Study:
Expanding Business Opportunities in West Africa
Client: International Rescue Committee (IRC)
Service Area: Strategic Planning & Facilitation
The International Rescue Committee (IRC) wanted to grow its youth programming portfolio across eight West African countries. They turned to Working Current to lead a strategic planning process that would help the regional team:
-
Anticipate and respond to shifting youth priorities and challenges
-
Build on IRC’s core strengths in youth development
-
Align programming with the evolving priorities of major youth-focused funders
Our Approach:
Working Current's team collaborated closely with IRC leadership to co-design and facilitate a dynamic, 3-day regional strategy workshop. The event brought together 22 staff members from IRC’s headquarters and eight country offices, creating a rare opportunity for deep cross-country exchange.
Through structured dialogue and reflection, participants shared field insights and surfaced the lived experiences of youth in their regions. Working Current guided the IRC country teams through a series of collaborative exercises to identify lessons learned, map organizational strengths, and spot strategic gaps.
We also brought data to the table: presentations from Working Current and IRC’s business development team highlighted emerging donor trends in youth programming. With this context, country teams identified real-world opportunities for growth, then translated those ideas into practical next steps — each with clear ownership and timelines.
The Result:
IRC’s business development team translated the workshop outputs into a regional youth strategy. Country offices used this shared roadmap to shape new program directions and pursue funding aligned with youth priorities — turning a moment of reflection into a platform for action.
As a kickoff exercise, teams visualized the young people they serve — sharing stories that revealed real-life challenges, assets, and dreams, and anchoring the workshop in the perspectives of youth.
Toward the end of the workshop, participants identified and ranked strategic opportunities using multi-criteria analysis, setting the stage for regional action planning and donor engagement.
