Imagine a world where every person has the opportunity to build a brighter future for themselves and their community. Imagine a world where learners, families and communities drive innovative solutions that prepare them to thrive in an ever-changing world. Imagine a world where systems are grounded in justice, equity, diversity and inclusion, and all learners can become what they dream. Imaginable Futures works together with our partners to make that world our collective reality.

Why Imaginable Futures

Learning, to Change Our Future

Learning is crucial to individual and family well-being. It’s also key to building thriving, more equitable and healthier societies. Too often, current education systems reproduce inequities and create barriers to opportunity. As a social change funder, we invest in people, ideas and partnerships that disrupt patterns of inequity and spark transformation for learners of all ages in Brazil, Kenya, South Africa and the United States.

Allocating Resources to Promote Racial Equity in Education

While Black and Indigenous organizations play a central role in proposing practices and public policies that promote racial equity in education, they receive only a small fraction of philanthropic capital in Brazil. We partnered with Unibanco Institute to launch a call for proposals to select 20 civil society organizations led by Black, Indigenous, or Quilombola individuals, providing financial support, institutional development assistance, mentoring and the sharing of practices and knowledge.
