🌟 Você conhece o trabalho da Imaginable Futures no Brasil? 🇧🇷 Apoiamos organizações e projetos que atuam na interseção entre equidade racial e educação. Mas o que isso significa na prática? 🚫 O racismo permeia todas as esferas da sociedade brasileira, incluindo a educação. 👥 Apoiamos programas que buscam mudar isso! Queremos garantir que crianças e jovens negros, indígenas e quilombolas tenham mais acesso a oportunidades, colaborando para a construção de um futuro mais justo e igualitário para todos e todas. Atualmente, apoiamos programas com três focos principais: 1️⃣ Expandir oportunidades de liderança por meio de representação equitativa. 2️⃣Promover uma agenda de equidade racial na filantropia. 3️⃣Fortalecer comunidades por meio de educação e políticas antirracistas. 🔍 Quer saber mais sobre a relação entre equidade racial e educação no Brasil, o trabalho da Imaginable Futures e os projetos dos nossos parceiros?

Thank you so much Dr. Marilyn Ronoh for sharing your insights and wisdom on what it takes to elevate African #women in research. The Mawazo Institute.
Lecturer | Applied Mathematician | Biomathematician | Infectious Disease Modeling| Researcher
I’m thrilled to be featured in this Imaginable Futures article highlighting how The Mawazo Institute is empowering women researchers in Africa! Research is key to shaping Africa’s future, and I’m proud to be part of a movement breaking barriers and amplifying women’s voices in academia. A huge thank you to Mawazo Institute and Imaginable Futures for championing this work! Let’s keep pushing for more opportunities and support for women in research—our contributions matter! "Dr. Marilyn Ronoh remembers the moment she hesitated to apply for her PhD. “I was a new mum, and it felt daunting to pursue my academic career,” she shares. The uncertainty was overwhelming. Like Dr. Ronoh, many early-career researchers in Africa—especially women—hold back, waiting for ideal conditions or full funding before taking the leap. This hesitation doesn’t just slow their careers—it delays progress for the entire continent."
