Opportunity for one RBC staff member to participate in a virtual Future City Builders UnConference facilitated by Evergreen. Engage with ~50 youth participants, network with other local champions in the city-building space, and contribute to relevant local issues to bring about awareness and action. The current Future City Builders cohort is focused in Moncton, Sackville, Saint John and Fredericton. Through the "UnConference" gathering model, attendees shape the agenda in real-time by prioritizing themes and self-organizing. The gathering ends with space for reflection, focusing on the process and connections made, rather than a particular outcome or output. We would love to have an RBC volunteer who is local to the area participate.

Locally-led non-profits and the communities involved have the expertise and knowledge to tackle the social injustices in their local setting. These NGOs are the first to respond, last to leave, and are responsible for 70% of all impact in development cooperation. However, they directly receive only 2% of the total global aid budget.
Imagine how much impact can be made, if locally-led NGOs would receive more than this marginal 2%! That is exactly our ambition!

Help us to promote iMPACT direct or one of the projects in your network in Kenya or abroad: https://impactdirect.eu/project/

We have brochures, website, socials, mailings present.
Let's brainstorm on what works best. For example, invite people to a presentation of one of our NGOs. Or sending a mailing around. Or you may have this other great promotion idea, that we can support, to jointly support the locally-led NGOs we are working for.

In turn, they work for people living below the poverty line in their communities, offering local sustainable solutions on income, food security & climate, and education. Currently we have reached 10,000 people in 5 African countries. In 2023, we aim to reach out to 15,000 people.
