Marwa El Daly Receives Inaugural African Philanthropy Award<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The inaugural African Philanthropy Award was presented at a celebration in Johannesburg on Tuesday, 30 October 2012. The prestigious non-monetary award was launched by the African Grantmakers Network to recognise African philanthropic initiatives that are innovative in leveraging social and financial capital, that are sustainable, and that signify renewed African agency in solving Africa\u2019s problems.<\/span><\/p>\n

The independent panel of judges selected Ms Marwa El Daly<\/strong>, the founder and chairperson of Maadi Community Foundation<\/strong> in Egypt, to be the inaugural recipient of the African Philanthropy Award.<\/span><\/p>\n

The judging panel was made up of the chief executive officer of the Africa Media Initiative and co-founder of allafrica.com<\/a>, Amadou Mahtar Ba; the editor in chief of South Africa\u2019s City Press newspaper, Ferial Haffajee; and the executive director of the Dar Es Salaam based Foundation for Civil Society, John Ulanga.<\/span><\/p>\n

The judges applauded Ms El Daly\u2019s efforts to mobilise communities and channel traditional cultural practices of charity into participative community development. The Maadi Community Foundation is the first of its kind in Egypt, and it is having a significant impact on philanthropic and development practice across the region.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a systemic and structured way, Ms El Daly is changing the strong culture of local giving from one that addresses immediate crises to one that is more transformational and long term. And she is getting rapidly growing support from groups from near and far.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms El Daly\u2019s community based approach to development is very much in line with the African Grantmakers Network\u2019s vision of promoting many different forms of African philanthropy by rich and poor people alike. Her approach reflects the southern African concept of ubuntu in community based philanthropic practice in North Africa, adding a new dimension to traditional models of charity and social investment.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms El Daly uses the Maadi Community Foundation\u2019s art program to bridge community divides, bringing youth from wealthy and poor communities together. The Foundation also creates spaces for youth to mobilise other youth in philanthropic activity.<\/span><\/p>\n

In post-revolution Egypt, her organisation is playing an important role in promoting social accountability.<\/span><\/p>\n

The African Grantmakers\u2019 Network was launched in Accra, Ghana, in July 2009. It isa platform for the promotion of an African voice and agenda for philanthropy. Its vision is for a transformed, relevant, vibrant and sustainable practice of African philanthropy. The AGN secretariat is currently hosted by TrustAfrica in Dakar, Senegal.<\/span><\/p>\n

The inaugural African Philanthropy Award was presented during the annual Inyathelo Philanthropy Awards that recognise philanthropy in South Africa. The awards celebration was held during the 2012 assembly of the African Grantmakers Network, which is being hosted in Johannesburg by the Southern Africa Trust.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n30 Octobre 2012<\/span><\/p>\n

Marwa El Daly re\u00e7oit le premier prix africain de la philanthropie<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Le premier Prix de philanthropie africaine a \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 lors d’une c\u00e9l\u00e9bration \u00e0 Johannesburg le mardi 30 Octobre 2012. Le prix non mon\u00e9taire et prestigieux a \u00e9t\u00e9 lanc\u00e9 par le R\u00e9seau des subventionneurs africains pour reconna\u00eetre les initiatives philanthropiques africaines qui sont novatrices en misant sur un\u00a0capital social et financier, qui sont durables , et qui signifient une agence africaine renouvel\u00e9e dans la r\u00e9solution des probl\u00e8mes de l’Afrique.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le jury ind\u00e9pendant a choisi Mme Marwa El Daly<\/strong>, la fondatrice et pr\u00e9sidente de la Maadi Community Foundation<\/strong>\u00a0en Egypte, pour \u00eatre le premier r\u00e9cipiendaire du Prix de philanthropie africaine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le jury \u00e9tait compos\u00e9 du directeur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de l’Africa Media Initiative\u00a0et co-fondateur de allafrica.com<\/a>, Amadou Mahtar Ba; le r\u00e9dacteur en chef deSouth Africa\u2019s City Press newspaper, Ferial Haffajee; et le directeur ex\u00e9cutif de la Fondation sur la base de Dar Es Salaam pour la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 civile, John Ulanga.<\/span><\/p>\n

Les juges ont applaudi les efforts de Mme El Daly pour mobiliser les communaut\u00e9s et canaliser les pratiques culturelles traditionnelles de charit\u00e9 en d\u00e9veloppement une communaut\u00e9 participative. La Fondation communautaire Maadi est la premi\u00e8re de son genre en Egypte, et a\u00a0un impact significatif sur la pratique philanthropique et le d\u00e9veloppement dans la r\u00e9gion.<\/span><\/p>\n

D’une mani\u00e8re syst\u00e9mique et structur\u00e9e, Mme El Daly est en train de changer la forte culture de dons locaux d’un qui traite des crises imm\u00e9diates pour celui qui est le terme plus transformationnel et long. Et elle devient rapidement un soutien croissant des groupes de pr\u00e8s et de loin.<\/span><\/p>\n

La communaut\u00e9 de l’approche bas\u00e9e de Mme El Daly au d\u00e9veloppement est tr\u00e8s en lien\u00a0avec la vision du R\u00e9seau africain des subventionneurs de promouvoir diff\u00e9rentes formes de la philanthropie africaine par des gens riches et pauvres. Son approche refl\u00e8te le concept de l’Afrique australe d’ubuntu en communaut\u00e9 pratique philanthropique bas\u00e9e en Afrique du Nord, ajoutant une nouvelle dimension aux mod\u00e8les traditionnels de la charit\u00e9 et de l’investissement social.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mme El Daly utilise le programme d’art de la Fondation communautaire Maadi \u00e0 combler les foss\u00e9s de la communaut\u00e9, ce qui porte les jeunes des communaut\u00e9s riches et pauvres ensemble. La Fondation cr\u00e9e aussi des espaces pour les jeunes \u00e0 mobiliser d’autres jeunes dans des activit\u00e9s philanthropiques.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dans l’apr\u00e8s-r\u00e9volution en Egypte, son organisation joue un r\u00f4le important dans la promotion de la responsabilit\u00e9 sociale.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le R\u00e9seau de\u00absubventionneurs africains” a \u00e9t\u00e9 lanc\u00e9e \u00e0 Accra, au Ghana, en Juillet 2009. La\u00a0plateforme ISA pour la promotion d’une voix africaine et l’ordre du jour de la philanthropie. Sa vision est celle d’un transform\u00e9, pratique pertinente, dynamique et durable de la philanthropie africaine. Le secr\u00e9tariat AGN est actuellement h\u00e9berg\u00e9 par TrustAfrica \u00e0 Dakar, au S\u00e9n\u00e9gal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le premier Prix de philanthropie africaine a \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 au cours des Philanthropy Awards Inyathelo qui reconnaissent la philanthropie en Afrique du Sud. Le prix c\u00e9l\u00e9bration a eu lieu lors de l’assembl\u00e9e 2012 du R\u00e9seau africain des subventionneurs, qui est accueilli \u00e0 Johannesburg par le Southern Africa Trust.<\/span><\/p>\n
