DYK there are over 5,000 improved varieties of potatoes?

About 2/3 of the world's population consumes potatoes as its staple food. Global production has increased by 10%, generating employment and income.

“To create social change and to contribute to a democratic life, we must engage in co-creation that is based on collective thinking and collective learning.” – Kreşendo [Crescendo] (@kresendobiz), Youth To The Front Fund (YTTFF) “The Creatives” Frontliners, 2023

Youth To The Front Fund supports creatives under 30 years old worldwide who use their work to fight systemic racism, injustice, and inequality — just like the impactful projects featured here:

1. Bu Festival Bizim (The Ours Festival) by Kreşendo [Crescendo] is a summit offering women and LGBTQ+ people a platform to explore creative ventures at the intersection of music and technology, fostering inspiration within an ethos of gender equality and sustainability.

2. "Madawa," a film in development by Musila Munuve’s Musuviwa Productions, challenges prevalent portrayals of addiction, particularly within Black communities, shifting away from isolating depictions to ones that foster empathy.

3. Founded by Amanda Kamanda, The Trans B n B Project (Trans Black and Brown) supports transgender women of color by addressing the intersectional oppression they face due to race, gender, and socio-economic status.

4. Community Sound Tapestry, an initiative by Zavia Jenkins, uses sound and acoustic ecology to capture the evolution of cultural traditions, oral histories, and the surrounding natural environment as they are impacted by climate change, policy, gentrification, and development.

Are you a young creative adding your voice to the call for social and systemic change?

Apply to YTTFF "The Creatives" for up to $20,000 in grants to fuel your artistic changemaking initiative. Deadline: August 16, 2024, 11:59 PM EST. Apply here: https://t.co/zkmearWZpG

“We are a team of youth who want to champion quality education in this community.” In the heart of Mukuru Kwa Reuben, children of all ages have found a safe haven at Badili Zone.

When entering the brightly painted community library, every detail reaffirms that knowledge is power. Books. Computers. Desks. Mentorship. Information access. Resource sharing. Unwavering support.

Most importantly, Badili Zone serves as a powerful community pillar for peace, for safety, and for hope. Here, every child is welcomed with open arms, embraced with the utmost love and care, and guided to fulfill their potential as the next generation leading the change — in Mukuru and beyond.

In June 2023, @WeAreFamilyFdtn had the privilege of visiting several project sites of our Youth To The Front Fund Frontliners in Kenya, including @BadiliZone, founded by 2020 Frontliner @ClarisNadini.

Now, we are inviting more Artist Collectives, Cultural Storytellers, Creative Organizers, and Heritage Keepers to discover Youth To The Front Fund’s funding opportunity for “The Creatives.”
