QUALITY OF EDUCATION
The Foundation pays special attention towards students, as future investors and savers, who look for suitable guides through the intricate web of today’s financial world. The Global Thinking Foundation helps and supports talented, less fortunate students to pursue professional and academic courses in the economic and financial sector: it offers scholarships, lectures and didactic materials. Scholarships are assigned according to precise criteria, decided by the Board. These parameters include:
– the GPA of the candidate
– the candidate’s family income
– the number of children within the candidate’s household
– other criteria established by the Board, following the Foundation’s Chart

GENDER EQUALITY
In order to offer equal opportunities to women and help victims of physical and psychological abuses, the Foundation strongly promotes a culture of prevention and support to fight against violence, especially economic violence.
In several cases, women are not ( partially or fully ) allowed the access to the family’s financial resources, severely limiting their independence. Ostracised and isolated, the victims loose social and professional ties. Economic violence involves, but is not limited to, the illicit repossession of income, the impossibility to access joint bank accounts.
The Global Thinking Foundation offers its resources to support the victims and to give an opportunity for freedom: entrepreneurial and family budget courses, informative publications and events are only few of the activities that the Foundation has established to reach this Goal.
