We are delighted to invite you to our upcoming in-person & online meeting on Thursday May 2, 2024. Join us as we welcome Patrick Awuah, founder and president of Ashesi University in Ghana for a discussion on «Philanthropy Beyond Eurocentrism: A Perspective from Ghana».

Amidst ongoing discussions about decolonizing philanthropy, this event offers an opportunity to reflect on our own philanthropic practices in the Global South. How can Switzerland-based foundations move beyond Eurocentric approaches in project funding and organizational support? Drawing on Ashesi University’s Afrocentric model, Patrick Awuah will share insights into navigating diverse perspectives and donor relationships.

Participation is limited for the in-person session, so make sure you register early. Please indicate your preference for on-site or online attendance, as well as your interest in joining us for an optional lunch at Restaurant Annamia after the talk.
