The FCT network fund is the fundraising arm of the Forum for Cities in Transition. This fund aims to raise awareness and financial assistance to support those living in cities in conflict. We aim to raise money to successfully fund cross community projects which meet our eligibility criteria. We will then provide ongoing technical assistance and monitor the social impact of each project, advising and supporting communities on the ground. Our goal is to a foster a philanthropic network of individuals, private companies and other like-minded-institutions to find real solutions to previously intractable problems.

Funds Raised
“Over 2 billion people live in fragile conflict zones, driving 80% of the world’s humanitarian needs. In these volatile circumstances, when the threat of violence is imminent and access to resources is limited, it is human duty, hand in hand, to lift people out of poverty and bring communities together in joint action. To solve crises and take a step towards a more peaceful place, we must lean on each other across the globe, for insights, for best practices and best values. By linking ordinary people and engaging all of us in cross community development, the forum for cities in transition seeks to nurture knowledge sharing and projects that will sustain an ethos of social solidarity, economic empowerment and inclusion so everyone has a chance at a dignified life. By coming together, we can help make a decent standard of living a reality for the many.”
