About This Project
Summary
One of UNICEF USA’s values is “Big Thinking; Bold Action.” The world’s problems require bold solutions so we harness creativity, curiosity, strategic thinking, risk taking and dedication to deliver real change for children. We identified the need to resource ideas for experimentation and learning in a flexible but structured way. The Impact Accelerator invites staff to apply for funding to catalyze forward-thinking, collaborative ideas that can drive tangible impact for the world's children.
Goals & Objectives
The Impact Accelerator encourages thoughtful experimentation among staff. Award winners get funds, training, mentorship, dedicated time, and connections to external expertise to support their intended goal. Innovative and creative ideas will be piloted this year.
Results & Impact
After launching the Impact Accelerator and engaging staff in Big Thinking; Bold Action workshops to stimulate innovative ideation, UNICEF USA received 7 project applications. The selection committee awarded budget to 2 projects that have the potential to amplify fundraising and build brand.
