SPARK develops higher education and entrepreneurship to empower young, ambitious people to lead their fragile, conflict affected societies into prosperity. We believe that the key to alleviating poverty and maintaining stability is sustainable economic growth. Therefore, by educating young people and creating jobs, people can improve their socioeconomic position, the local economy benefits and the potential for conflict or radicalisation is reduced. We pay special attention to marginalised groups, including young people, women and refugees, and we work closely with local partners to equip these populations with the knowledge, tools and motivation to lead their conflict affected societies into prosperity.
