The Worldwide Tribe was born from a life-changing Facebook post Jaz wrote about her first trip to the CalaisJungle in July 2015. Jaz’s authentic account went viral, raising £250,000, reaching over 13 million people and sparking the collection of physical donations by the tonne - filling warehouses across the country. Jaz has worked tirelessly in refugee camps across Europe and the MiddleEast ever since, telling the stories that too often go unheard.

Jaz’s work comes from a personal place, and dates back to early 2015when her parents began fostering an unaccompanied minor named Mez from Eritrea. Mez made the journey across the world as a child refugee, and was the first of four new brothers to join Jaz’s family, also from Afghanistan, Sudan and most recently, a 13-year-old boy fromLibya.

The Worldwide Tribe are dedicated to challenging the fear-based narrative of today’s media and society and do so through film, talks and an extremely popular *podcast. Jaz’s natural gift for storytelling has powered many projects on the ground including installing WiFi in camps in France and Greece, running art projects in Za’atari camp in Jordan, supporting a Search-and-Rescue in the Mediterranean and many more.

“As long as I don’t die saying if only….”

A simple question kept Andreas Ksoll awake at night: What can I do to leave a better world behind for my kids? 

He sought a bold and drastic solution to his sleepless nights: to buy one thousand acres of Amazon rainforest, intent on protecting the land from any harm. But the journey he had undertaken was far from straightforward. What started as one man’s eccentric dream has swiftly become a journey of perseverance, collective effort and a refusal to give in. The question has become less about what one man can do, but how we can work together to secure a more sustainable future. 

“If I can protect 1000 aches, what if WE can protect 1000 000 acres?”

The Amazon Man is an inspiring and ongoing tale. But what if you and your organisation can help save the rainforest too? You can be instigators of meaningful change in Andreas’ story, so get in touch, and help achieve a universal dream.
