Who we are
iGen Foundation
Youth Entrepreneurship I Migrant Entrepreneurship I Intercultural Practice
Established in 2015, iGen Foundation drives the empowerment of Australian youth, migrants, and regional communities through entrepreneurship, and intercultural practice and research.

About us
We are a registered charity with a commitment to cultivating entrepreneurship by young people and migrants and intercultural practice and research. Our entrepreneurship work is informed and influenced by intercultural practice.
We believe that self-employment, particularly for people in groups or areas experiencing high unemployment, can lead to self-determination, a sense of belonging and intercultural networks, a focus on the future and economic ripple effects felt for many generations to come.
​
We also believe that the future of Australia will be best served by a shift to interculturalism where Australians of all backgrounds know and understand each other and revel in the joy and power of our diversity.
​
Our work in intercultural practice and research in Australia is unique and is applied to all our projects and activities. It's our mission to ensure that people have the greatest opportunity to meet people of different ages, genders, cultures, nationalities, religions, languages and any other 'differences' we may see in each other. The more we meet people who are 'not like us,' the more we will innovate to solve diverse problems, feel accepted, more trusting and less afraid of others.
​
Over the years we've worked with many hundreds of people through our initiatives and are committed to building a better Australia through this work.
