APW is launching a new Foundation Programme that lays the groundwork for all future APW education. This programme translates over a decade of on‑the‑ground teaching and over 20 years of professional practice into a format that is accessible, flexible, and scalable.
Support now doesn't just complete one course, it enables the next phase of the Foundation Programme to take shape.
We are raising $50,000 to complete and start delivering the first Foundation Programme course, Laying the Foundations.
The work is ready. Community support unlocks delivery and access, starting with the first course.
Some supporters will fund their own place in the first course; others will help enable access, delivery, and wider impact. Both are essential.
This is a community-backed launch, where participation and enablement sit side by side under one shared purpose.
Similar to Community Supported Agriculture (CSA), our crowdfunding campaign can be understood as Community Supported Education (CSE).
Supporters contribute up front to help complete the work, share in the benefits of early access and participation, and play a direct role in bringing a valued resource into being for the wider community.
Completing the first Foundation Programme course unlocks what comes next - future courses, wider access, and a sustainable delivery model.
Any money raised beyond the $50k means we can create the rest of the programme faster.
If this kaupapa resonates with you, we invite you to contribute to the completion of the first Foundation Programme course, Laying the Foundations, and help bring this work into the world. Together, we will strengthen the roots and grow the resilience needed for the years ahead.

Have a great day!
