Welcome to Ten Years Time

Working with Ten Years Time is a singular, at times joyful, sometimes challenging, but always engaging experience. The team are driven by real passion, which consistently shines through. They always went above and beyond to bring together different perspectives, explore the subject matter and build the solid foundations for our giving.

Working with Ten Years’ Time has been key to the transformation of our grant making strategy across our focus geographies. Through the curation of powerful in-depth learning journeys, we connected with hundreds of community organisers, activists, civil society organisations, policy makers, government officials and researchers based in-country, as well as those working at the intersection of relevant issues.

Our learning about racial justice and lived experience, especially in the context of our work, is so important to continue to come back to as often as we can, and when this is in a thought-provoking but supportive environment, so much the better.

We’ve worked in collaboration with Ten Years’ Time on two deep-dive projects since we were founded … We’ve always found the TYT team to be deeply thoughtful in their approach, all-round superb facilitators and to have an incredible network to call on to bring a range of perspectives to challenging topics. Our journeys of listening and reflecting with them have been provocative and thought provoking. Through these journeys have emerged profound changes in strategic direction for us as a foundation and refreshed clarity around wealth, the philanthropic sector, and what our role might be in bridging to a post-philanthropic or post-endowment future.
