Scope is an innovative black queer youth-led non-profit organisation. Our work is concerned with issues of inequality and socio-economic exclusion of LGBTQIA+ persons in Southern Africa.
We place immense value on collaboration and partnership with numerous organisations to implement initiatives that have a social justice impact.
We see black feminist values as part of our core practice.
Our skills are in facilitation, education and training. We work with large NGO's, corporate and government to raise funds for grassroots work in under-resourced communities.

about scope academy
Scope Academy has developed an excellent set of courses to assist our partners and organisations we engage.

01
Innovation for Sustainability
Scope uses innovative training and facilitation mechanisms to develop sustainability models for grassroots/nascent organisations that work within marginalised communities. Doing so ensures that the work we do remains relevant and is continuously accessible while educating those in our networks, favouring sustainability and autonomy despite limited resources.
02
Championing Diversity
Scope places particular emphasis on addressing the inaccessibility of resources and support. We work in historically disenfranchised communities grappling with marginalisation. Through championing diversity, we engage multilaterally to address complex issues experienced on the ground by the communities we serve.
03
Network and Alliance Building
Scope focuses on grassroots and nascent organisations that prioritise marginalised communities in rural and peri-urban areas. Through engaging those organisations, we aim to foster community and networks of support to maximise resources and impact on the ground. We believe strongly in the power of networks for sharing monetary, intellectual and physical resources that further develop organisations through sustainable impact for more significant change. Scope aims to facilitate and create platforms that enable organisations to communicate and share skills. Effectively placing importance on the principles of alliance-building, solidarity and that expand on social justice for those most vulnerable in our society.
