About us
Our ambition for Professors Without Borders is to improve teacher mobility around the world so that every student can experience a dedicated, professional and inspiring learning environment that will fire them up for their next stages in life. Education, for us, in not just about learning. It’s also about doing. We want to inspire our students to confidently engage with the world and contribute to making it a better place, starting with their immediate environment. Education begins at home, and we are bringing professors to your doorstep. To achieve these objectives, we focus on skills-building. This includes analysis, presentation and writing skills, team-work and confidence-building. These skills are in high demand in most professions, and we also want to prepare our students to be high-achieving contributors to society, whether through their own entrepreneurial vision or when working with a company. Our professors are specialists in their fields and excited to share their love for learning with their students. Finally, to develop a country, you need talent, and you need this talent at home. While we cannot reverse the braindrain, we can target local talent and contribute to their academic and professional development in their immediate environment.

🌱Ils étaient comme des terres riches et fertiles (notre Team) , prêts à accueillir le meilleur, avant que je n'y sème de bonnes graines à travers le coaching et la facilitation.🌱 C’est ainsi que je résume notre réussite lors du CLIMATHON Co-organisé par , GEOMATICA ,Climate-KIC , Bond'innov Professors Without Borders Investisseurs & Partenaires - I&P ,Green Climate Fund . Merci à Thiara Loum pour la recommandation et le choix porté sur ma modeste personne.... Ensemble, nous avons relevé le défi de proposer des solutions innovantes face aux enjeux climatiques, un parcours jalonné de défis, d’efforts, mais surtout de persévérance. En tant que coach, j’ai eu l’immense privilège de guider ces esprits brillants, de cultiver leur potentiel et d’accompagner leur croissance. Plus qu’une simple compétition, cette aventure a été un voyage humain, où chaque membre a appris à se dépasser, à s’appuyer sur ses forces et à faire confiance à l’intelligence collective. Le résultat ? Une victoire bien méritée ! 🎉 Un moment fort qui prouve qu’avec une vision claire, de la détermination et du travail collaboratif, tout devient possible. Mais au fond, ce qui restera gravé, bien au-delà du trophée, ce sont les graines d’apprentissage et de solidarité que nous avons semées. Parce que coacher, c’est planter des graines de confiance dans les cœurs, pour que chaque talent s’épanouisse pleinement. 👉 À tous ceux qui s’engagent pour un futur plus vert et plus durable : continuez à semer, à croire, à agir ! Le plus beau des fruits est encore à venir. 🌍
