Partners

The Global Changemakers programme is working in partnership with organisations and institutions to generate opportunities for Changemakers – from project support to policy platforms. Our main partners are:

World Economic Forum
Global Changemakers has been working with the World Economic Forum since the programme’s inception at the 2007 Annual Meeting in Davos. Changemakers have since taken part at regional meetings in Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East in addition to the Annual Meetings. Changemakers also lend their advice throughout the year as informal advisors to the Forum’s Global Agenda Council on Next Generation Issues.

Nike Foundation
Since 2010, the Nike Foundation has been supporting our Girl Effect Community Action Projects, which target projects that benefit young women, aged 10-19, in communities across Africa and the Middle East. The Foundation also supports Changemakers’ participation in events such as Women Deliver and Clinton Global Initiative.
