Who is Behind P&PW?

Systems-change incubator
Bold ideas
Social innovation
One Family Foundation is a systems-change incubator for bold ideas. We back ambitious, unproven concepts, even when success is far from certain, because problems like poverty, inequality and exclusion will not be solved by safe, one-off interventions.
We act as an incubator
We act as an incubator, bringing communities, social innovators and governments together to co-create and test new approaches, so that the people closest to a challenge are engaged in shaping the response.

From idea to movement
Once an idea has proven its potential, we help it grow into a full initiative, platform or independent movement.

What ties it

together

Social innovation, finding better ways to meet shared needs and change the systems behind them, is what ties together everything we do, from Aselo and Catalyst Now to Africa Forward and the Government Council for Social Innovation.

People & Planet Week
People & Planet Week carries the same purpose: it celebrates social innovation by making it visible and understandable, and opens it up to participation, so more people can recognize it, support it, and help shape the solutions and policies that affect their own lives.
