Inspiring a Generation of Creative Problem Solvers.
We value:
- Human-centered design: People know their own problems best. Solutions must involve those who face the challenge.
- Appropriate Technology: Designs that use local, repurposed materials and are easily replicable and locally made.
- Local Knowledge: We believe in adaptive and observant ways of knowing and doing that are unique to Malawi.
- Ever Learning: We believe wisdom comes in being constantly open to growth and from seeking mutually beneficial partnerships.
- Talent is universal, opportunity is rare: Good ideas can come from anyone. We all have a role to play and a story to share.
Our Team
Moving Windmills is structured with a few different teams to support our work on the ground in Malawi and through our global connections and partnerships.
Engagement Team: A small group of dedicated individuals willing to wear multiple hats, engage our global community, and ensure we stay aligned to our values, exploring incoming opportunities, and conduct the administrative work necessary to keep Moving Windmills active.
Core Team: We maintain a core team of individuals who ensure continuity between cohorts, guests, and visitors at all of the Moving Windmills sites. The core team resonates with our values deeply and are individuals we know and respect. The core team will willingly offer technical support when requested.
Operations Team: Our community of Hub managers, Grace House managing team, security guards, gardeners, cooks, and drivers, who are willing to offer assistance to our programming partners, staff, and guests when needed.
