Dreamcatcher South Africa was founded to address the challenges holding back quality of life in communities and their local environment.
There are three pillars to sustainability: social, environmental, and economic. When Dreamcatcher started its journey, business and development were rooted in narrow, parochial economic models – with little regard for people or the environment. Sadly, this outdated approach still underpins much of business today.
Powered by research, experience, and bold innovation, Dreamcatcher South Africa creates community-driven solutions. By uniting people and planet in one vision, we’re shaping a future that is inclusive, sustainable, and within reach.
For over three decades, we have consistently walked the talk – developing award-winning, inclusive models that create lasting impact in communities. Today, our work is internationally recognised and can be duplicated to advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. See the images above highlighting examples of our impactful work.
With just five years remaining until the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal deadline, the pressure has never been greater. There is increased scrutiny on how industry, governments, institutions, and communities are responding, and will continue to respond, to meet the targets. Growing emphasis on climate change, wellbeing, habitat loss, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and the transition from a linear to a circular economy underscores the urgency.
More than ever, people want to see sustainable development in action—and Dreamcatcher is leading the way.
That’s why the next step in our journey is the Dreamcatcher Sustainable Futures Centre, which will provide:
We have many of the resources needed to bring the Centre to life. What we need now is your support to scale up our work and develop a facility that embodies sustainable principles and accelerates global learning.
Your donation empowers us with the capacity to deliver lasting, sustainable change for many more communities. If you believe in becoming a change-maker, please join us. Donate today—because a sustainable future is the Dreamcatcher way.
Every donation receives an official acknowledgement, which may be used for tax deduction purposes where applicable. As we receive support from across the world, tax rules may vary.
