The Foundation was represented at the constituency’s recent hustings by Mad. Betty Akuffo-Amoabeng, a member of its Advisory Council.

Moreshet Foundation has congratulated Lucy Lake of the Yidan Prize Foundation and Dr. Andrew Cunningham of the Aga Khan Foundation on their re-election as constituency leaders. The Foundation says it looks forward to working with the re-elected leaders and other members to advance shared priorities in education.

It believes the membership will provide an opportunity to amplify African philanthropic perspectives in global education discussions, partnerships and decision-making, while promoting greater collaboration towards more inclusive and equitable education systems.
