FPD does not follow the narrower definition of community engagement that is solely focused on the role of students in the community. We believe that as an institution that attracts highly skilled social entrepreneurs, we are in a position to effect positive transformation in society.
The work we do around system strengthening includes supporting NGOs, working with the public sector on health and education systems strengthening, addressing gender-based violence and implementing learnerships. These activities speak to our commitment to creating positive change.
