The AANDEC Consult strives to actualize the AANDEC resolve for constructive engagement with the larger society.

Activities of AANDEC Consult
The AANDEC Executive Council granted funds for complete documenmtation for the consult to condust business
according to government requirements. A number of project proposals were unable to take off due to lack of capital
investment. However, series of partnerships with government and other agencies are still in the pipeline. The
Consult’s best chance is the expected voluntary particpation of all AANDEC members dedicated to take advantage
of the available business platform
