Aotearoa New Zealand is facing serious challenges – social, environmental, economic and cultural – many of which are complex, embedded, fractured and ‘stuck’
Isolated projects, programmes and organisations struggle to make a difference
Working directly and flexibly with for-purpose leaders – in an authentic and safe way – can develop new ways of seeing, connecting and operating
The NEXT Fellows initiative aims to catalyse potential, through a strategic philanthropy model that includes financial support; professional development; and building of community
Cohorts are assembled around NEXT priority areas of environment, education and strategic philanthropy. While still early days, much learning and success has been achieved
NEXT acknowledges the mana of all of the Fellows and their heart to make a difference for Aotearoa
