Over the last 15 years, we’ve spent a lot of time learning, developing, and strategising for impact. We have built knowledge resources, some in-house and some in collaboration with other organisations that share our vision. We’ve played the role of implementation partner for several initiatives, and held events to facilitate dialogue and action for social good. However, over the last decade and a half, our priority has remained unchanged — developing solutions for impact at scale, with people at the centre.
Our work has spanned sectors, allowing us to play a hand in education, livelihoods, gender equity, climate, and healthcare. Through this journey, we’ve built lasting relationships with like-minded organisations that build for impact.
We believe that Civil society, Business, and Government all have a critical role to play in building an equitable and sustainable world. We actively partner with all stakeholders to enable impact through our advisory and orchestration services, knowledge and data platforms as public goods for the ecosystem, and collaborative solutions.
