CFW facilitates access to this information by offering an online opportunities listing system that enable identification of the most relevant opportunities in an organized way.

DONOR BACKGROUND:

Founded in 2011 by Olfa Terras and her husband Guillaume Rambourg with the aim to endorse and carry out all actions of support in the fields of art/culture, in heritage and education in Tunisia.

DONOR MANDATE:

• To facilitate public access to the arts and culture while promoting education, sports, and handicrafts in Tunisia.
• This mission is fulfilled through the development of coherent and inclusive projects that marry excellent production techniques with skillful execution and have received recognition for our ability to successfully combine these cardinal values.
• FR goal is to encourage the development of a knowledge and a creative economy that will allow Tunisia to prosper by preserving our cultural heritage while supporting innovative initiatives and practices.
• In so doing, FR engages a broad public throughout the Tunisian territory, with a special focus on the most remote areas of the country.
  
  

  DONOR STRATEGY:

  In line with its mission, the Foundation in Tunis concentrates on three strategic fields: Education, Culture and Social engagement. These all strengthen the greatest focus of the Foundation “Education and culture for development” –inspired by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (to achieve a fair and just life in respect of every human’s freedom and rights). It does so by supporting initiatives that promote arts/culture, safeguarding the national legacy, humanitarian/social aid and education at early age.

  Three methods: Grants (via call for proposals), technical support to project holders, and direct project engagement. Non solicited grants can be awarded rarely to good projects that fit the Foundation’s perspectives. Apart from the grants, the Foundation prefers to lead and implement relevant projects itself.

  FUNDING PROGRAMS:

  1. SCHOLARSHIPS:

  For students with little financial means in Tunisia to fund their studies abroad or for Tunisians abroad to fund their studies in the country where they reside. The Foundation co funded a 2 years scholarship for a young violin Virtuoso, Ghofrane Miladi in the Prestigious Mehudin School in London. A young Tunisian tennis player, Ala Trifi, entirely funded by the Foundation, was sent to study in the famous Mouratoglou Academy, one of the best tennis schools in the world.

  Rambourg Fellowship: new (signed on 10 January 2018), this award provides full expenses for students from Tunisia for attending the School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA) in the Columbia University in New York. From meeting with Karim Terras on 05/02/2018: the subject of Public Affairs has been chosen to improve knowledge of politics and diplomacy in Tunisia among the new generation.

  1. RAMBOURG FOUNDATION PRIZE FOR ART AND CULTURE

   

  The award was created in 2015 in association with Lumière d'ailleurs.

  Eligibility: individuals under 50; NGO; Collective; All must be of Tunisian nationality or established in Tunisia.

  Amount: 20,000 DNT per prize. However, at the end of their project, the beneficiaries benefit of the accompaniment and the full support of the Foundation to make the best of their project (ex. By exporting a show abroad, by publishing a book as a project output etc.)

  Applications are sent online, and the selection is done in two steps (desk selection to get 15 finalists. Interview to choose the 5 winners).

  The Prize is actually under a reforming processes for its next edition in 2020.
  
  
  

  FUNDING PROJECTS:

   

  Jbel Semama Cultural Center for Arts and Crafts:

  The Foundation entirely funded and followed up the construction of the Jbel Semmama Cultural Center for Arts and Crafts, in Kasserine. In this remoted area, only miles away from Chaanbi mountain, the project was a chance for the youth in the area to evolve. Since then, the center has hosted number of events sometimes international.

  Joint project executed in partnership with the National Office Of Tunisian Handicrafts (NOTH) :

  A cartographical inventory to support Tunisian artisans and revitalize the handicraft industry.

  The Rambourg Foundation has launched an ambitious new project to revitalize the Tunisian handicraft industry. The project will promote Tunisia’s rich artisanal culture and increase its visibility through the development of an exhaustive critical inventory of Tunisian artisanal knowledge, techniques, and traditions (from both a diachronic and a synchronic perspective). 

  In order to fulfill the project’s objectives, the NOTH and the Rambourg Foundation will work together to create a digital cartographical inventory that exhaustively documents Tunisia’s local handicraft industries.

  The program will also support the creation of a prototype model production unit that demonstrates artisanal excellence.
