ALAFA received the regional Drivers of Change Award for 2008 in the business section for the work it is doing in the apparel industry in Lesotho.

The Drivers of Change Award, organised by the Southern Africa Trust, is a prestigious non-monetary award that recognises individuals and organisations from across the southern Africa region that are making a difference, especially in developing effective public policies and strategies to overcome poverty. It is awarded in three categories: civil society, government and business.
