Identifying worthwhile early stage
educational projects and providing seed capital by
underwriting operations in their formative years,
and then stepping back as Companies and others take
over the obligations of sponsoring these innovative
& often trailblazing institutions. An example of
this approach is the underwriting of the first year
of the academic operation of South Africa’s
internationally renowned free university CIDA (www.cida.co.za). |

Developing community based sustainable businesses
with a focus on sustainable education. An example of
this form of project is the Hende bio-fuels project
in Mozambique (www.arvoremoz.com). |

Connecting with other foundations or donor
organisations and supporting initiatives such as the
Pan Africa Prize for Entrepreneurial teachers (www.teachamantofish.org.uk/conference/)
and the conference for Financially self sufficient
schools with TeachAManToFish. |
| • |
Initiating or engaging with projects at different
educational levels and geographic areas in Southern
Africa with a view to seeing what is feasible and
worthwhile. The long term goal is to then replicate
and expand on the most beneficial projects Africa
wide. |
