OUR FOUNDER

His Highness the Aga Khan, the visionary leader and chair of AKDN, serves as the 49th hereditary Imam of the Shia Ismaili Muslims. With an enduring dedication spanning over six decades, his commitment to development stands unparalleled.

“Today, the Aga Khan Development Network embraces many facets and functions. But, if I were trying to sum up in a single word its central objective, I would focus on the word ‘opportunity’. For what the peoples of the developing world seek above all else is hope for a better future.”
