• Welcome

    Established in 2020, the Fabo Learning Community is a growing community of 25 member organisations and over 12,000 learners.

    Fabo is a member-driven learning community for NGOs and we are brought together by a shared passion and belief in learning as an empowering vehicle for change. Dedicated to shared learning technology and learning resources, we bring organisations and learners together in our pursuit of enhancing capacity sharing and building. Read more about Fabo here: https//fabo.org.

    Fabo was founded by ACT Alliance members in 2020. It emerged from the 2015 ACTLearn Partnership with the vision of broadening the learning collaboration to CSOs beyond the ACT Alliance. Fabo is hosted by DanChurchAid (DCA), an ACT Alliance member and Danish humanitarian and development NGO, headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark.

        • FABO COMMUNITY WEEK IS CLOSED FOR REGISTRATION


          An essential part of the Fabo Learning Community is you – the community. This is why the theme of the first Fabo Community Week of 2021 is Community at a distance. This also marks the change of name of our quarterly events to Fabo Community Week.​

          During the COVID19 pandemic, we have all struggled to find new ways of building the capacity of ourselves and others. How do we learn, develop skills, generate ideas, collaborate, and co-create when we can’t be physically present at our workplace and with each other? ​

          But it has not been a pointless struggle. We have come up with new ways of working and learning during the past year that will affect our practice going forward. We might not have perfected it yet, but we are learning. So let’s take status together of what we’ve learned and ask each other how we want it to affect our work and organisations in the future.​

          We invite Fabo members across the globe to share their perspectives, knowledge and experience, stories and cases. Welcome!

          Dates: 15-18 March, 2021

        • Learning Support working group


          This working group is for Fabo members who are currently working on a specific learning project, for example developing a new workshop or blended learning training, converting a manual into an on-demand learning resource, or kickstarting a Community of Practice. 

          The purpose of the working group for learning support is:

          • To support Fabo members to design learning experiences that lead to real change by engaging the learners and by using online and blended learning methods
          • To identify thematic and methodological synergies across projects and organisations
          • To share inspiration and good cases with one another
