2018 tGF Research Project:

The leaders setting their sights on short-term viability and long-term vision.

This mini-compendium is, in the main, a collection of conversations and reflections from leaders across the business and charity spectrum.

The hope is that it will enable charities who are not able to talk with business leaders to get an understanding of how they variously think and operate, and to use that as a starting point to explore how they want to play out their own future strategy on this new stage. And for business, this compendium will illustrate proven routes to a more-than-profit approach of running a company, while providing the context needed to consider potential opportunities and partnerships in these new markets.

There are case studies. There are interviews. There are snippets. There are disagreements across the pages. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. There are divergent minds within, let alone beyond, each sector. There are questions to take away and consider alone, or in teams. And there are conclusions, but we’ll keep those light.

We have learned a lot from these conversations and reflections, and we very much hope you will too.

Taqaddam

Taqaddam, meaning ‘Move Forward’ in Arabic, is an innovative blended learning programme that develops enduring life skills in 15-16 year olds across several countries in the Middle East and North Africa. The programme aims to increase the chances and outlook for participants, by helping them to reach their full potential through developing the personal and social skills they need to make a positive contribution to their communities and wider society.

Maths in Outer Space VR

In 2016 we experimented with developing virtual reality content to see how it might be useful in educational contexts. These videos were built to be shown through Samsung Gear VR, but are also available on Youtube, in both English and Kiswahili.

Tanzania

After working on the ground over the last few years in Wasso, our aim now is to connect with other charities working to similar aims in Tanzania, to determine what package of initiatives is needed to transform primary schools there, and how we as tGF can help convene partners to work together to achieve this.
