IDP Foundation (IDPF) is a private non-profit family foundation focused on innovation, development and progress by supporting local actors deliver sustainable solutions to complex global issues. We work with partners in Ghana and Kenya to deliver market-based solutions focused on improving education in underserved communities. We’re passionate about strengthening the global education system via an all-hands-on-deck approach, giving children in all settings access to quality education. As an international team with a long-standing presence in Ghana, we’re focused on thinking outside-the-box on the issues impacting learning outcomes in low to lower-middle income countries. Our focus is two-fold. Firstly, we actively fund organizations who support low-fee private schools today, while telling the story of their organic nature by empowering the voice of local actors and beneficiaries. Secondly, we focus on championing the mixed economy of education provision – and the contribution of non-state actors – to be recognized and integrated into national education systems. We believe in the power of partnerships to achieve our mission. Our aim is to support sustainable community-built education provision, as part of an affordable non-state sector (ANS) that complements public education systems and is governed within a central framework. We’re guided by the principle that the best way forward is to empower local actors to create change. Our core values are: Þ Building capability beyond aid is the most effective answer Þ Designing market-based solutions for the underprivileged supports economic development Þ Working in partnership and empowering local communities is key to sustainability Þ Advocating for effective alliances harnesses the power of the collective Þ Being prepared to embrace risks leads to more inclusive results Þ Acting as a catalyst leverages further funding Our global team are located in the US, Ghana and the UK.
