This Strategy document serves predominantly as a practical basis upon which a comprehensive, coherent, and dynamic Resource Mobilisation Strategy is premised. It  primarily aims to give the African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD) a sound, stable and strengthened funding window: One that will be based on its role and value as the development agency for the African Union (AU) and champion for Agenda 2063 implementation. Another perspective is to see it as a journey in institutional  introspection, appreciating that the success of resource mobilisation is a direct function of institutional effectiveness and agility. It is a process of seeking renewal, cultural  transformation – realising an institution that is driven by professionalism as well as individual and collective ownership. It is a body of professionals driven by the right  incentives and a quest for an entity driven by a deep desire to serve our clients optimally. The rest of the paper identifies and hones the various pieces of the puzzle to paint a canvas of institutional excellence. These ideals are clearly not realisable overnight. This is a journey to be taken a step at a time.
