The Funding Systems Change Initiative is a collaborative effort driven by a coalition of foundations and changemakers in Switzerland, and led by Ashoka Switzerland and collaboratio helvetica. Recognizing the need for systemic solutions to tackle complex challenges, this initiative seeks to transform conventional funding practices and empower foundations to adopt and embrace transformative funding mechanisms.

Systemic change is needed to successfully implement the 2030 Agenda and achieve the SDGs in Switzerland as well as to tackle the deeper laying root causes that are driving today's polycrises.

Our vision is that organisations in Geneva and beyond leverage their full potential to use innovation to respond to societal needs by transforming their employees into intrapreneurial leaders, connected to a wider community of changemakers and disruptors that are paving the way for the new economy.
