This coalition is dedicated to addressing the root causes of society’s most pressing challenges, focusing solely on large-scale problems that require scalable solutions.
Solving Systemic Issues from the Ground Up: FSI’s Ethical Blueprint for Impact
With deep roots in youth empowerment and a proven track record in supporting social impact leaders and entrepreneurs through capacity building and knowledge sharing, FSI stands out in its field.
