About Enenda
Born in Dar es Salaam. Built for institutions that believe sustainability capital deserves the same rigour as financial capital.
The Name
Enenda comes from Swahili. It means “go forward, make progress.” In a continent where sustainability is too often reduced to checkbox compliance or aspirational press releases, we chose a name that demands movement.
Enenda Impact Capital exists because we believe the gap between sustainability commitment and sustainability impact is an infrastructure problem. The intention is often there. The capital is often there. What's missing is the operational discipline to connect them — the same discipline that the financial world takes for granted.
The Founders
Gabriel Kilima Bundala
Gabriel brings over a decade of deep expertise in financial governance, fund management, and institutional operations across Tanzania’s diverse sectors. His career spans finance leadership roles where he oversaw grant portfolios, fund disbursement, compliance systems, and operational controls — the exact disciplines that underpin Enenda’s mandate governance model. He has worked in different senior capacities for PwC, Bolt and most recently, Foundation for Civil Society where he has taken a keen interest in driving sustainability as a key agenda at the intersection of business, government and civil society.
Justice Novati Rutenge
Justice is a development professional with over 16 years’ experience in the development space, specializing in strategy, program design, results measurement and strategic communication. He has led assignments for leading national and international NGOs, corporates, government agencies and development partners. He founded iDev Tanzania, a boutique consulting agency and most recently served as the Executive Director at Foundation for Civil Society. Justice has dedicated his entire career to understanding how impact works, an orientation that drives his work at Enenda.
What We Believe
Capital demands accountability
Every dollar of sustainability spend should be tracked with the same rigour as every dollar of financial investment.
Impact demands evidence
Self-reported metrics without verification are not impact data. They are marketing.
Africa deserves world-class tools
The continent hosting some of the world's most important sustainability challenges should have infrastructure built for its context, not adapted from elsewhere.
Disclosure is the starting line
Compliance with GRI, IFRS, or SASB is necessary but not sufficient. Real impact goes beyond the report.
Based in Dar es Salaam
We are headquartered in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania — one of Africa's fastest-growing economic centres. Our position gives us direct insight into the sustainability challenges facing African institutions, from regulatory evolution to climate risk to the growing demands of international investors and donors.
Let's build something that matters
We work with corporates, fund managers, initiative partners, and donors who share our belief that impact capital deserves discipline.
