Africa's leading open distance learning institution 
 
 Africa's leading open distance learning institution The University of South Africa Foundation was established to support the University of South Africa (UNISA), Africa's biggest open distance learning institution, offering both undergraduate and postgraduate studies across many academic disciplines.  UNISA is the largest open-distance e-learning institution in Africa and the longest-standing dedicated distance education university in the world. We enroll nearly one-third of all South African students. We offer an unparalleled range of study choices, ranging from short courses and certificate programs to three-and four-year degrees and diplomas, with close to 400,000 current students. As one of the leading research institutions on the continent, our research efforts have won us numerous awards, recognitions, and honors. Given our rootedness in South Africa and the African continent, UNISA today can truly claim to be  the  African university shaping futures in the service of humanity.  The year 2023 marks an important milestone for the university. Born in 1873, UNISA is celebrating 150 years of providing quality teaching and learning by  Reclaiming Africa's Intellectual Futures .  Investing in the future of the Unisa student Having kicked off those celebrations, the university is always mindful of investing in the future of its students, many of whom are from indigent backgrounds. The UNISA student needs your donations and support in a form of student bursaries to progress to the next level, graduate, exit the university system and define tomorrow. Donate to the Unisa learning device program  Approximately 150 000 Unisa students need laptops or tablets to continue to succeed in their studies. While transforming UNISA into a leading ODeL university where teaching and learning will be primarily online, it is vital to continue to support students with a digitized learning environment.

Increase Opportunities for Africa's Creative Youth 

We are the Africa Digital Media Foundation. We exist to give creatives on the African continent the resources and platform to tell new, future-facing positive stories about Africa on a truly global stage. 
 
 Africa is filled with talented, creative youth waiting to make their mark. There is a new generation of aspiring filmmakers, graphic designers, sounds engineers and digital marketers who are passionate about telling the untold stories of Africa.  Unfortunately, these youth do not have the necessary skills to get employed in the creative sector. In fact, Africa's youth are facing a massive unemployment crisis due to a mismatch between the jobs employers have available and the skills youth are getting from traditional university programs.  This is where we come in. At Africa Digital Media Foundation (ADMF), our mission is to provide youth with the necessary training and skills to grow a global hub for Africa's Creative Industries with the clout to build the next Pixar, produce the next Black Panther, and win the next Pulitzer.  Already our 700+ alumni are behind and in front of the camera in Oscar-nominated films and Netflix-commissioned projects telling vital new stories from across the continent.  We want to see millions of African youth entrepreneurs and professionals creating content for profit and impact. We need your help. To learn more about what we do  visit us at  admf.or.ke

Being a hero to our heroes children by helping them go to school

Our men and women in uniform continue to be at the forefront of the fight against Covid 19. Our valiant military personnel have been assisting the government in transporting medical supplies and personnel protective equipment, building quarantine facilities, providing transportation for essential workforce, installing mobile kitchens for the needy, manning checkpoints, and ensuring the safe distribution of financial and in-kind aid to our brothers and sisters in need. In the midst of these efforts, we honor the sacrifice of our soldiers who, despite the crisis, continue to die at the hands of the enemies of the state in Sulu, Aurora, and Negros Occidental.
 
 HERO Foundation has been helping the children and dependent siblings left behind by our military personnel who were permanently incapacitated or killed in action. Since it was founded in 1988, HERO has helped almost 3,000 orphans finish their education and pursue their dreams. More than 1,200 of these scholars have already graduated from college and are now their families breadwinners
 
 As we face an uncertain future due to the current pandemic, our HERO scholars need to be secure in the knowledge that they will still be able to continue their education and still be productive members of society because they have YOU to count on. 
 
 We at HERO Foundation hope to continue to work together with you in honoring the sacrifices of their fathers, ensuring that their childrens education needs will be taken cared of.

" Succeeding Olivier Oger is both an honor and a challenge.  I would like to pursue the very aspiring choices he made over the last three decades, while keeping the “creative challenger" spirit of EDHEC. 
	 
	I have identified three priorities to reach this objective :
	 
	 
	- Enriching the student's experience : through innovative teaching methods and a strong scholarship programme.
	 
	- Developing entrepreneurship and innovation : thanks to an enhancement in teaching and a growth of the l'incubateur EDHEC Young Entrepreneurs.

Make Colombia a more equitable country through education 
 
 Colombia faces enormous challenges of access, quality and permanency in education. 75% of boys and girls from 0 to 5 years do not receive early education (Wasserman 2020), 42,8% of young people in the age range to be in 10th and 11th grade have a school to attend (Fundación Corona, 2019). Regarding quality, 33% of 15 year old students reach level 2 (out of 6) in the PISA tests (OECD 2018), and about the permanence of students, only 44% that start school finish 11th grade. This is exacerbated due to the armed conflict in Colombia, being the first country in LATAM where the first cause of death is violence. Displacement of millions of families has been a direct consequence of this, which added to the actual migration of Venezuelans, constitutes a big challenge to relocate and secure them job,health and educational opportunities. In 2011, a group of 3 young men came together to create an organization to address educational challenges. Enseña por Colombia has a unique, locally rooted but globally informed model, which has been successful in 60 countries that currently implement it. Our strategy is based on our belief that to tackle the educational challenges in Colombia we need diverse leadership on different levels of the system, so that diverse professionals, experienced teachers, students and school principals connect with the mission of improving education and achieve transformative results in themselves and in their communities. These experiences are lived through programs, learning communities, meeting places, and special projects that foster transcendent leadership. We have been working for 10 years to build a social movement that will one day ensure that all children and young people in Colombia have access to a high-quality education that will allow them to reach their full potential. Today, we see that this vision is a priority that requires transformative solutions that are current and contextually relevant. Our movement of leaders work collectively at different levels of the educational system and at different levels of Colombian society. We have reached an estimated 110,000 students across 10 years of working with communities in 126 schools and 45 municipalities from different regions.

A leading university that provides an excellent educational and research environment.

Established in 1979, Khovd State University is the premier and leading university in Western Mongolia and has a wealth of experience of preparing skillful teachers and specialists. Currently, the number of teachers in the university is estimated at 260 and the number of students is more than 3,800. In 2010, the university opened the Bayan-Ulgii Branch of Khovd University. The vision of Khovd University is to become one of the leading universities in the Altai region in terms of impact, quality, the scope of research, training, and social services. The mission of Khovd University is to serve students and the community by providing an excellent education, research environment, and curriculum, through which the University can produce graduates who will lead Mongolian society by reconciling the demands and necessities of an informed society and supporting a knowledge-based economy.
 
 At the moment, the Bayan Ulgii branch of the university is unable to provide housing for its students, many of whom must seek private, expensive rooms in the town or its surroundings. With a growing number of students, many of whom are from nomadic families living at a great distance from the university, the building of student housing has become an urgent necessity. These donations will be used for the building of a safe, energy-efficient dormitory for 95 students on the university campus, important especially during the long winter when sub-zero temperatures make travel impossible.

Scholarships for students from low-income families in Northern Thailand

The Foundation for the Education of Rural Children (FERC) is a registered charitable foundation that provides scholarships for students from low-income families in Northern Thailand. In Thailand, the basic education is free but when a student reaches 15 years of age, parents have to contribute towards the school fees and continue to pay some of the other associated costs – uniform, transport, lunches, etc. A FERC scholarship, therefore, enables students from low-income families to remain at school until they are 18 years of age, to promote their ability to go on to further education or training, and to better employment opportunities in the future. FERC works closely with the area Education Authority and the teachers to identify the highly motivated students who are most in need of our support. FERC meets with the students twice a year when the scholarship money is distributed, and they visit the schools from time to time. In this way, they receive regular updates on their progress. FERC is managed and administered purely by volunteers who meet some of all the associated administrative costs themselves. FERC’s administrative costs are under 4%!

An educational foundation in pursuit of giving financial support to teachers in Vietnam.

AMA Vietnam Ltd is a non-profit educational foundation based in Singapore that focuses on Vietnam. AMA’s mission is to improve the quality of education in Vietnam gradually by inspiring and improving one teacher at a time. AMA’s scholarship program offers financial and developmental support to teachers and students studying to become future teachers in Vietnam. Their latest project is the Phước Thiện school. In Vietnam, some of the poorest students attend university to become teachers. Unfortunately, teaching is also one of the most underpaid professions in Vietnam, where many struggles to support themselves. Many drop out of the profession if their salaries cannot support themselves and/or their families. Many others are forced to work two jobs in order to meet their rising living costs, which will likely lead to deterioration in the quality of their teaching at the school. This is the vicious cycle that AMA strives to change over time.
 
 AMA works to make a tangible impact on each teacher’s life and the quality of their teaching for students in the future. As a result, they can achieve a multiplier effect on the quality of education in Vietnam, addressing poverty and improving lives while advancing educational development in the long run.

Acting for equal educational and cultural opportunities 
 
 Each year 80,000 young people leave the French school system without any qualifications. In Priority Education Networks, 50% of 9th grade students do not pass written GCSEs. Furthermore, French heritage culture is increasingly linked to social background, yet less than one in two 15-year-olds has visited a heritage site. More than 40% of young people living in the 1,500 French priority neighbourhoods are unemployed. Espérance banlieues works to promote the successful integration of children, teenagers, and their families into French society. Acting as a complementary operator within the French national education system, Espérance banlieues aspires to meet the need for educational and cultural equity.  Deeply convinced that inequalities can be overcome, Esperance banlieues has already created 17 schools in or nearby disadvantaged urban areas. Espérance banlieues schools welcome more than 900 pupils aged 3-15 years old.  Espérance banlieues works to prevent school dropout from an early age. Teachers provide children with high-quality teaching and education, promoting a peaceful social life. Each school is conceived on a human scale, designed for 150 students maximum per school. This helps teachers to give individual attention to each child so that he or she can discover and develop their very own, unique talents. Visit our website:  https://esperancebanlieues.org/

Quality education for children and teenagers in vulnerable situations in Peru

Quality education for children and teenagers in vulnerable situations in Peru 
 
 Huchuy Yachaq, a nonprofit based in Cusco, acts with the conviction that a quality education for children and teenagers in vulnerable situations, together with the family bolstering and community organization, contributes to a better future for them. When we started our work in 2006 in the Hermanos Ayar periferic Cusco's zone, we were guided by two main purposes: On the one hand, we aimed to reduce the hours of work in the streets of boys and girls who carried out ambulatory trade activities in the main square of Cusco, washed tombstones in the local cemetery, or washed cars in squares, putting at risk not only their personal integrity but also their schooling. On the other hand, we aimed to strengthen family ties to avoid an early ruptures that would condition the permanence in the street. With this, we intended to improve the conditions and quality of life of children and teenagers at high risk of social deterioration. Currently, we continue working with this purposes through several projects. PROJECTS INITIAL EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION OF CHARITABLE ACTION (IEIP) "LAS HORMIGUITAS" (2009-running) IEIP "Las Hormiguitas" aims to provide equitable access to quality education at the pre-school level, promoting the integral development of boys and girls, identifying and giving timely attention to bio-psychosocial problems. It involves parents and the community in educational management to guarantee quality education for children under 6 years old. Theatrical techniques, plastic arts and music and choir workshops are incorporated. Las Hormiguitas has Directorial Resolution of the Regional Directorate of Education Cusco, No. 1630 of July 14, 2009. PROGRAM FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL SKILLS AND ORGANIZATION OF FREE TIME (2006-running) Its objective is that children and teenagers develop social skills, improve their performance in society and expand their social networks. It is divided in the following projects.           1.Library (2006-running):  Provides services for students from primary and high school, providing books and texts, stationery materials and guidance for completing homework. Through it, we have implemented school leveling and educational reinforcement programs, reintegration into the formal educational system and the program of "solidarity support", which seeks to provide economic aid or educational materials in situations of extreme urgency.        2. Free time program and Maxivacaciones (2006-running) :  Although various courses are offered during school vacations, these are not accessible. For this reason, most children opt to work. So, this program seeks to: reduce the hours that working children spend on the streets, reinforce learning in the key school areas and facilitate the development of social and artistic skills.        3. Assistantship Program (2007-2011, running):  After finishing high school, the lack of economic resources and opportunities makes young people join the already large economically active population in conditions of informality and exploitation. With the purpose of providing them opportunities to continue higher education, a proposal for assistantships is promoted; it seeks to grant economic aid to students of the higher technical or university level TROTABARRIOS: (2022-running) It replicates the experience of Huchuy Yachaq, encompassing recently formed neighborhoods that welcome a large number of families despite the lack of basic services, access to public transportation, etc. It is dynamized by former local volunteers and former users of our programs MAMA KILLA WORKSHOP (2022-running) Its aim is the learning and undertaking for gender equality in times of pandemic. It seeks to expand women productive and technical capacities, trough production of accessories (bags, wallets, backpacks, backpacks, etc.) in many materials. Currently 20 women are training. At Huchuy Yachaq we firmly believe that social change can be achieved through the agency of community members, especially of empowered children and teenagers. For more than 15 years, we have been an important partner in this task and we will continue to be. Visit our website :  https://www.facebook.com/huchuyyachaqperu/

CAMELEON develops a holistic approach to act on the causes and effects of sexual violence towards children and teenagers. 
 
 CAMELEON  has been working in the Philippines for 24 years in order to facilitate the protection, healing and rehabilitation of young girls victim of sexual abuse (5-24 years old). 130 girls are currently protected and helped by CAMELEON : 76 of them are sheltered in our 3 centers based in Silay (Negros) and Passi City (Panay), while 54 girls continue to be guided after they left the center to go back to their families (if safe) or in welcome families accredited by social services. OUR MISSION About 7,000,000 children are sexually abused every year in the Philippines. More than 70% of sexually abused children are between 10 and 18 years old. Among those victims, 20% are under 6 years old. Cases of child sexual abuse are one of the most common issues that the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has to handle after abandonment and neglect. Despite the Anti-Rape Law of 1997, rape remains the most frequent type of sexual abuse, followed by incest and fondling. CAMELEON offers general support to the young girls victim of sexual abuse (basic care, food, education, professional training) and psychological counselling to help them rebuild themselves. The families receive training in parenting to facilitate the reintegration of girls. It also provides legal assistance for the duration of the trial to the girls who wish to sue their perpetrators. The association supports its beneficiaries until the resolution of the conflict and their complete autonomy. Long-Term Impact Thanks to the project, 130 young girls victim of sexual abuse will rebuild themselves and will be resilient. They will build their future thanks to education and skills development. They will know their rights and invoke them in front of the court, which will help fight impunity. The families will change their behavior towards their daughters and promote Children's rights. The communities and local authorities will be mobilized together to prevent and deal with child abuse cases in these areas.

                                                                               www.mozlibraryproject.org Vision : The AJUNTOS Moz Library Project helps illiterate youth close the achievement gap by providing access to supplemental education opportunities, learning resources, and community health knowledge, through building and managing Ile's first public library. The  Value  of Literacy: Learning how to read and write can change lives. Literacy increases employment opportunities. Literate individuals earn 64% more than their illiterate counterparts. Literacy has been linked to increasing lifespans. A child born to a mother who can read in a developing country is 50% more likely to survive past the age of 5 years old. Literacy is also linked to public health. Individuals with little or no education are 2.2 times more likely to contract HIV as those who have completed primary education. Identifying the  Need  in Mozambique: According to a 2016 study, Mozambique's youth literacy rate is 68%, compared to the 90% global average. Furthermore, only 37% of the Mozambican population has a comprehensive knowledge of HIV. Increasing literacy rates has been linked to increasing HIV prevention and improving health and wellbeing. The ability to read and write can change lives. Project  History : Courtney Johnson was a Peace Corps volunteer from 2015-2017 and worked as a teacher in Ile, Mozambique. She observed that about 5% her high school students could not read or write. But it was not for lack of effort. Many of her students who were illiterate went to school every day. However, those students turned in tests with only strings of letters and consonants. Illiteracy was a topic of conversation among teachers and community members. However, there was an acute lack of resources that prevented the existing institutions from tackling this issue. In 2015, Courtney began to work with community members to develop a program that would work alongside the existing education system providing supplemental literacy education. The  Mission : The AJUNTOS Moz Library Program is run by a group of community members who are teachers and activists with the shared vision to bring a library to Ile. The library provides both instructional support and resources. Teachers trained in the literacy curriculum will offer lessons with an emphasis on interactive learning strategies. Equally as important, the library will provide resources that may be otherwise unavailable like paper, pens, and electricity to study after dark.  To accomplish the vision of the AJUNTOS Moz Library Project, the mission is threefold: 1) Design a Safe Space 
 Support construction efforts to provide a safe and secure space. 
 Establish access to electricity providing the ability to study after dark. 
 Create a hygienic space with a well for access to water and clean bathrooms. 
 2) Coordinate Library Resources 
 Provide the community with access to resources including tables, chairs, books, pencils, paper, electricity, and computers. 
 Establish a simple, replicable, and interactive literacy curriculum that serves a diversity of learning styles and individualized attention. 
 Train teachers in Curriculum Workshops and train teachers and librarians to use and maintain resources to create a sustainable program. 
 3) Inform Community Health Leverage opportunities to disseminate public health information through classes, murals, and public theater plays. About  Ile, Mozambique : The library is in Mozambique, a country which sits on the southeast coastline of Africa sharing a boarder with South Africa to the south and Tanzania to the north. Ile is a medium-small town with a population of approximately 15,000 people. Ile has 5 elementary schools, 1 high school, a soccer field, a hospital, several stores, and an open-air market. It is primarily an agricultural town with oranges, rice, and beans as the principle crops. The coordinates of the library are 16"02"15"S and 37"10"35"E. October 2021 April 2021 March 2021 February 2021 January 2021 January 2021 Impact of  COVID-19 : With the onset of COVID-19, the AJUNTOS Moz Library Project stopped classes and focused efforts on a campaign to slow the spread of COVID-19. Using the library to organize volunteer activists and supplies, AJUNTOS distributed soap and masks to over 300 families.

 EDUCATING FOR JOBS There are lots of good causes we all contribute to. Then why are we focusing so much effort on just one school in Rwanda? Because a major worldwide source of poverty and refugee populations comes from Africa and foreign aid has largely failed to help. Because Rwanda's rural areas are among the poorest remaining in Africa and because, in our minds, the only hope is education, particularly in useful trade skills. Because we are backed by an enlightened Rwandan government that has its priorities right. And because we can wrap our hands around this project and make it happen- with our management experience, your help and relatively little money. That's why.  Rick Jay and Sue Sawyer ETSK Committee for Education Improvement www.etsk.org BACKGROUND ETSK is a rural boarding high school set on one of the country's thousand hills, above a beautiful lake, just a one-hour drive from Kigali, the capital of Rwanda – a country that many believe to be the future development model for all of Africa. This private vocational high school is for 350 motivated boys and girls, teaching the skills necessary to find a job in CONSTRUCTION, COMPUTER SCIENCE OR CULINARY ARTS or progress to university on a government scholarship.  Become a monthly supporter! - $25 per month will cover the monthly tuition shortfall for one government-assigned student. - $60 per month will fully support one of our 28 full scholarships. How about supporting 2 students next year? Make your generous gift count! -$2000 will pay for the new sound system we need in our indoor gym. -$3500 will pay for 25 of the 50 new 2-person desks we need for our expanded enrollment. -$5000 will pay to upgrade all of the roof drainage systems that are now causing damage to most of our buildings and pathways. -Another $5000 will pay to increase by 50% our budget for work skills practice materials (much of which is used by construction students to build our school infrastructure). - $13,000 will pay to rebuild the toilets condemned by the government. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!

We Build Creative Confidence To Ensure All Children Have The Opportunity To Fulfill Their Potential 
 
 With our unique & multi-award-winning methodology, students in the primary class, university students, and vocational/technical secondary students co-create a Dream Machine invented by the children. 
	 Whether you want to solve a challenge in your job or neighbourhood, create something fun, start your own company or whether you want to come up with a solution for something personal or a global issue,  all require the creative confidence to express your ideas and bring them to life. This is where (in the words of Harvard University) MyMachine delivers the "I can do that" perspective to all participants. 
 
	 
	 
 
	 In MyMachine: 
 
	 
 students  learn that having ideas is important. That you shouldn't be afraid to express your ideas -even if they sound a bit weird or challenging in the beginning. They learn what it takes to bring an idea to life; and that you can do it by respecting each other's talents, co-create, collaborating and not giving up; 
 
	 
 teachers and professors  experience the power of project-based learning. They participate in an open education process that proves to students that what happens in a classroom can impact the -and has a link to- the real world. That's the pivotal moment they realise that MyMachine – and thus education – brings them skills they can use for life. 
 
	And the best part of it: it's crazy fun!
 
	 
 
	 Our unique and multi-award winning methodology: 
 
	 in one school year: 
 
	 STEP 1. PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN INVENT THEIR DREAM MACHINE (IDEA) 
	 Anything goes: from a machine that helps you to put peanut butter on a sandwich, a machine to learn to make friends, to a machine to clean up the ocean. The main criterion is that it is relevant for the child-inventor who really, really wants it.
 
	 STEP 2. UNIVERSITY STUDENTS DESIGN THE IDEA (CONCEPT) 
	 With the help of University Students (product designers, game design students, engineers, architect students, art students etc.), the children design the idea into a concept.
 
	 STEP 3. TECHNICAL/VOCATIONAL SECONDARY STUDENTS BUILD A WORKING PROTOTYPE: 
	With the help of the Technical/Vocational Secondary Level Students, the children build a real working prototype of those dream machines. 
	     
 Invented by kids: 
 The-Making-People-Happy-Again-Machine 
	 The Revolving Bunk-Bed (The-Never-Discuss-Anymore-Who-Gets-To-Sleep-On-Top-Machine) 
	 The-Giving-Compliments-Machine 
	 The-Homework-Making-Machine 
	 The-Soccer-Buddy 
	 The-Candy-Making-Machine 
	 The-Do-All-Machine 
	 The-Belgian-Fries-Shooting-Cannon 
	 The Chase-Away-Bad-Ghosts-Machine 
 
	 ...and many, many more. Discover them here:  http://dreamsdrop.mymachine-global.org 
 
	 So, what is your dream machine? 
 
	 Your kind support will make a lasting difference in helping us achieve our goal of bringing our powerful model to as many students as possible, worldwide.  
 With over 1,3 Million Student-Hours of impact, over 17,000 students have already learned that they can also contribute to society, rather than just be a consumer of society. Read About MyMachine in   FORBES .

Together, we must preserve the future of pluralism. 

Advancing Pluralism to Enhance the Future  of Our Global Community Our Impact Building a world where understanding, pluralism, and free circulation of knowledge are the source of progress towards more inclusive and sustainable societies.   In today's world, surging illiberalism threatens democracy throughout the Global North and South. A backsliding of progress is only possible if we lay a renewed foundation for mutual respect, diversity, and global thriving. Together, we must preserve the future of pluralism.   We must build an ecosystem that supports fundamental freedoms of speech and discovery, promotes the unfettered pursuit of knowledge, and safeguards inherent rights of justice and equity. Our Mission Over the last sixty years , Fondation Maison des sciences de l'homme (FMSH) has cultivated pluralistic progress by advancing collaboration across the social sciences and humanities – forging new cooperation and understanding across boundaries. Founded in 1963 by the renowned historians Fernand Braudel and Clemens Heller, from the start, the FMSH has been a transatlantic project supported by transformative American philanthropies. Since its inception, our foundation was standed out with an unique positioning on particularly innovative and "risky" research themes. We achieve this through our commitment to: 
 Evidence-based dialogue across disciplinary, cultural, and national boundaries 
 Developing scientific research and implementing strategies to counteract discrimination and disinformation 
 
 Valorizing inherent human rights and imperatives of social justice including open, rational and critical thinking 
 Our history positions us as a vital crossroads to gather leading and emerging intellectuals who will help chart the future global path of pluralism. 
 Our Campaign Facing the decline of pluralism and democracy, we are launching a campaign to lay the foundation for global progress. Our 3-year, $5 million campaign will create tools and develop new avenues for cross-cultural work through our four program pillars: 
 
 Promoting the Freedom of Expression and Discovery  – A fellowship program targeting scholars in life-threatening contexts who need safe locations to pursue their work.   
 
 
 Accelerating Cooperation, Digital Dissemination & the Fight Against Disinformation –  Expand the use of digital tools and create platforms through cross-disciplinary and cross-border connections on topics crucial to global security and progress. 
 
 Expanding Collections to Circulate Knowledge Beyond Borders  -  Translating collections of academic works from Africa, Asia, North and South America, the Middle East, Slavic countries, and Central
Asia, and brings attention to unseen academics and other traditionnally excluded groups. 
 
 Strengthening the Capacity of NextGen Humanities & Social Sciences  Scholars  – FMSH Young Scholar Academy: Equipping junior researchers with critical skills to practice social sciences and humanities. 
 Our ambitious agenda  for the future of the global community can only be realized through partnerships. Together we can strengthen pluralism in all corners of the world by building more resilient, vibrant, and informed communities across the globe.

supports music therapy research for children with autism in the US.

The American Friends of the Papageno Foundation is established to support music therapy research for children with autism in the US.  Music therapy is a well-established professional health discipline that uses music as a the therapeutic stimulus to achieve non-musical treatment and goals. When Aaltje van Zweden-van Buuren and her husband, conductor Jaap van Zweden's, child was born with autism, this had and continues to have a huge impact on the family. In 1997, the couple established the Papageno Foundation. Now, 20 years later, Papageno has made a name for itself in the Netherlands. The Foundation has developed into a multi-faceted organisation which, through all sorts of initiatives and activities, focuses on the development of children and young people with autism: 
 Music therapy:  a national network of 25 qualified music therapists, who provide therapy to children in their homes. 
 Papageno Huis: this centre offers respite and support to children with autism. For the youngsters it is a place to work, to live and to  participate in the community.  
 Research: research of music therapy on autism and into the possibilities of early diagnosis and treatment. 
 Develop advanced funding opportunities to support autism programs

YOU bring real, lasting social change in the DRC.

“Women are the first victims of war, but only they hold the unique key to peace.” – Julienne Lusenge 
 
 The Fund for Congolese Women (FFC)   supports women's grassroots organizations through financial and technical assistance.  FFC is unique - the only women-led grant-giving NGO in the entire DRC.

We know that when women become agents of change, they benefit, their families benefit, their communities benefit. Since its inception in 2007, FFC has funded more than 386 projects throughout the Democratic Republic of Congo. We support projects focusing on eliminating sexual violence against women, delivering empowerment programs for women and girls, educating women about HIV/AIDS and reproductive health, and advocating for environmental justice and access to resources and land for women.  Generous individuals like you make our work possible.  Thank you!
