The Growth & Employment in States (GEMS) program in Nigeria is a
partnership between the Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN) and the
Department of International Development (DFID). It aims to reduce
poverty in Africa’s most populous country by increasing growth, incomes
and jobs in selected states. GEMS3 works with private and public
stakeholders at national, state and local government levels to build and
deliver a systemic framework that will help make it easier to do
business in Nigeria, leading to lasting improvements in economic
opportunities for the poor, especially women. The GEMS3 project
addresses issues relating to land, tax and investment.
