Editorial

In 2023, resilience was at the heart of our philanthropy discussions. Resilience in the face of climate change, resilience in the aftermath of earthquakes in Turkïye and Morocco, and resilience in the communities around us - all of which we want to support as best as we can. Despite the challenges, we have remained steadfast in the core mission of Think Human Foundation, facilitating access to quality education for communities facing difficulties. It has also been a year of change. We have renewed Think Human Foundation board of directors since Dec 2023 and I would therefore like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Olivier Duha, Helena Guardans, Vincent Bernard, Dominique Chatelin, and Sandrine Asseraf for their dedication and generosity to the Foundation in the last 3 years. We have also decided to broaden our scope of action to include projects focusing on resilience to climate change, starting in 2024. Our network of Concentrix game- changer ambassadors are deeply involved, and our nonprofit partners are undertaking positive, impactful actions within communities to strengthen skills and resilience.

Philip Cassidy New President of Think Human Foundation

Together, we can make a difference to empower and give back to our communities.

Our history

“I am dedicated to steering the strategic direction of the Foundation in order to achieve its objectives and beyond, to make the most positive and meaningful impact in the Foundation's key areas of focus: climate resilience and quality education for communities with limited opportunities..”

In 2017, Shared, Think Human was the very first philanthropic entity to the business with a budget of 50k€ per year.

Philip Cassidy President, THF

Think Human Foundation is an endowment fund co-founded by Webhelp and Olivier Duha. A budget of 3M€ is donated for 10 years to support education and inclusion.

“The challenges are immense! I’m really excited to be part of this adventure . As the People Solutions Lead at Concentrix, it’s very rewarding to also be able to look at how we can support external communities.”

Think Human Foundation created a network of 30 ambassadors to seek out the right nonprofit opportunities and recruited volunteers to support the projects. These game-changers are staff from Concentrix who gave their time to support THF impact

Diane Hanson Board Member, THF

“We look not only at the quality of the projects, but also at the seriousness and calibre of the nonprofits we work with to guarantee results. It's a real opportunity to support the communities that surround us, and to contribute as individuals too.”

Think Human Foundation operated in 21 countries across the globe, impacting communities.

Our new vision

The new vision of the Think Human Foundation is to enhance a more inclusive and sustainable world, by building climate change resilience and facilitating access to quality and relevant education for communities with limited opportunities.

Quality education is one of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but it is also crucial to achieving five other goals: no poverty, good health and wellbeing, gender equality, decent work and reduced inequalities. In 2024, the THF has enlarged its scope to include climate- change resilience projects to support the key climate SDGs. Climate change is one of the biggest threats to humanity. The communities around us need to get ready to face the consequences of climate change and we want to provide the right resources to be prepared and take positive action.

Why we are taking action

Every year, 100 million hectares of rich, productive land are degraded . (source UN Goal 15) We aim to promote resilience, knowledge and action in the face of climate change. In 2024, we will achieve this by supporting projects that protect biodiversity, provide access to renewable energy, improve soil quality, plant sustainable crops and support agricultural and ecological practices.

Today, 1 in 4 young people in the world are not in training, education or employment (Source UN SDG report). Access to quality education is key to achieving our sustainable development goals. Alongside our nonprofit partners, we want to help strengthen academic, social and digital skills, and provide a better understanding of the working environment to promote inclusion.

All our partners work for communities in urgent need, without access to quality education or the skills required to facilitate their social or professional integration. The beneficiaries of these projects have limited opportunities; for example, refugees, with no family support or in a very precarious situation, isolated from the world of work and without qualifications. They are stakeholders in their own development and learning the right skills to increase their autonomy. In 2024, the Think Human Foundation is widening its scope to Climate Resilience projects to widen its impact in supporting communities in the protection of local biodiversity and associated livelihoods, and future bad weather events. Projects which started in 2024 • Greece: Sistech: education for refugee women • Italy: L'Albero della Vita: Science and technology workshops • Morocco 2024: Marrakech Entraide: renovation of a school after the earthquake

Think Human Foundation Managing Team

Think Human Foundation supports projects wherever Concentrix operates and game-changers play an important role in the success of the partnerships. Local teams are involved in the project from the outset to guarantee its follow- up and success. A strong network of 40 Concentrix ambassadors in the world identify the most impactful nonprofits, co-build the projects, support the nonprofit applications on THF community portal and select the most impactful ones.

“I’d like to thank our amazing network of local ambassadors and game-changers who dedicate their skills, commitment and time to help nonprofits and local communities, on top of their day-to- day jobs.”

Mary Bonneaud Lagarde General Manager of Think Human Foundation

Concentrix game-changers all throughout the year can participate in supporting nonprofits, including with the partners of Think Human Foundation. They are encouraged to become Community Givers and can participate in different ways: give time, money, voice and things. Most of Think Human Foundation’s partners will mobilize the game- changers’ time, require them to put their skills into practice, or raise awareness of the issues facing communities in difficulty.

“After 3 years as an ambassador, I’m now joining THF team to support the communication and project management.”

Jacqueline Liwanag-Cuadro Project and Communication Manager
