Connections and Contributions

The Just Peoples team would love to invite you to join us for this special end of financial year event.

You'll have the opportunity to meet 6 leading social changemakers from across East Africa and learn about how the organisations they've founded are changing lives in their communities. They'll each share a 5 minute overview of Why and How they do what they do and then take questions from the audience.

You'll have the opportunity to ask questions, or simply listen, learn and be inspired!

We welcome all our current Just Peoples supporters as well as people who are curious about the meaningful change they can make in the world by directly backing local leaders overseas.

*Tax deductible donations can be made by Australian and New Zealand tax payers through Just Peoples to directly support the work of the speakers.
