We are building a future
where we all thrive together.

The Aga Khan Foundation is a leading global development organization working to tackle the root causes of poverty.

A future where we all thrive together needs strong foundations.

For more than 55 years, (since 1967), we have helped create strong community institutions that support sustainable, locally-driven initiatives to improve the lives of millions of people. By combining local knowledge with global best practices, we strive to bring about transformative and long-lasting improvements to quality of life.

Working alongside the agencies of the Aga Khan Development Network and through partnerships with local communities, civil society, and businesses, as well as governments and international aid agencies, we are building a future where we all thrive together. Learn more about AKDN here.

The voices of civil society will reflect and express the growing complexity of society, not as autonomous fragments, but as diversified institutions seeking the common good. And I believe that the voices of civil society can be among the most powerful forces in our time.
