Catch up with the oikos Community!

Welcome to the November edition of our newsletter!

This month is full of opportunities in our network and beyond. We are starting a new GlobalGiving campaign at the end of the month, followed by the LEAP Advanced applications opening, along with LEAP Info Calls to learn more. If you missed last month's LEAP Alumni workshop, another one is coming shortly.

If you're looking to engage in sustainability, there are a number of opportunities open at the moment - on our oiCases Program, with our partners Rethinking Economics, P4NE, and GRLI, along with the PIR 2022 Edition to choose from. Additionally, there are some interesting reads on the topics of crowdfunding, fashion and weather.
