Resilient and Flourishing Societies

The Five Strategic Pillars

Slide 1
Ethical
Corruption

The first pillar is ethical, which relates to personal and institutional change towards dislodging corruption through promoting the principle of fairness and ethical stewardship.

Slide 2
Academic
Mindset, Culture and Values

The academic pillar concerns a critical and thorough understanding of social, cultural, political, religious, moral and economic realities of a given society through conducting problem-solving research projects.

Slide 3
Economic
Poverty

The economic pillar concerns value driven poverty alleviation and wealth creation schemes modelled on ethical entrepreneurship and interdependence with special focus on women and young people.

Slide 4
Religious
Extremism

The religious pillar takes into account the fact that Africa’s socio-economic and political plight is closely interwoven with religion… SOPHOS AFRICA will seek to contribute to the promotion of freedom of religion, the definition of the role of religion in the public space and efforts to overcome misinformation that leads to extremism and violence.

Slide 5
Political
Ethnocentrism

The political pillar concerns challenging policies and practices that promote the 'us' versus 'them' mentality by putting the interests of a particular ethnic group before that of others.
