Aga Khan Foundation

As a member of the Aga Khan Development Network, one of the world’s largest development organizations, we make long-term investments, from early childhood education to infrastructure. We build hospitals and schools.  We work with people to serve their community and build their local economy. Our work impacts tens of millions in over 30 countries every year.

How do we do this? Through partnerships with people, businesses,  local organizations, and governments. Our economic, social, and cultural investments ensure this commitment for generations to come.

Our work is driven by a firm belief in our shared humanity. The Aga Khan Foundation partners with communities around the world to build better futures together. Prosperity for all comes from harnessing the best from people of all walks of life. We believe that communities and societies are stronger when they are built on the shared vision of people from all backgrounds.

Meaningful change takes time, which is why we’ve been working in communities across Africa and Asia for decades—and will be there for generations to come. We invest in high-quality institutions such as clinics, banks and universities that anchor communities and provide opportunities for people to unlock their own promise. Rooted in local knowledge and ownership, and equipped with tools like education and health, people begin to realize their potential and drive change in their communities. Each generation grows stronger as more individuals benefit, and a transformation takes place. Civil society begins to thrive. People establish mutual trust and respect and, together, make decisions to lift up the community.

We are stronger together, and in a world where differences and conflicts divide, now is the time to build a better future together.
