What We Do
Tony Blair works with a number of different organisations in different capacities. These include:
Africa Governance Initiative
The Africa Governance Initiative (AGI) has created a unique model of development, combining Tony Blair’s unparalleled experience with expert on-the-ground teams working full-time alongside government counterparts. AGI works with countries - currently Sierra Leone, Rwanda and Liberia – that are at potential turning-points, where a tragic past has left a lack of capacity and deep poverty, but where there is clear potential and a leader with the vision and political will to achieve progress.
Office of the Quartet Representative
Tony Blair works for the USA, UN, Russia and EU as the Quartet Representative, helping the Palestinians to prepare for statehood as part of the international community’s effort to secure peace.
Tony Blair Faith Foundation
The Tony Blair Faith Foundation aims to promote respect and understanding about the world's major religions and show how faith is a powerful force for good in the modern world. The foundation will work with Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs and Buddhists. Tony Blair believes that faith will have great influence in how the challenges that globalisation presents will be met. The Faith Foundation uses the full power of modern communications to support and step up efforts at every level to educate, inform and develop understanding about the different faiths and between them.
Tony Blair Sports Foundation
In recognition of his debt to the North East of England, Tony Blair launched the Tony Blair Sports Foundation, to increase participation in sport by young people, particularly those who are currently socially excluded – by inspiring more adults to become trained coaches; by providing access to high quality nationally-accredited training for those we recruit; and by helping to match coaches with the schools and sports clubs which need them.
Breaking the Climate Deadlock
Having been the first major head of government to bring climate change to the top of the international political agenda at the Gleneagles G8 summit in 2005, Tony Blair is now leading the Breaking the Climate Deadlock' initiative, a strategic partnership with The Climate Group, through which he is working with world leaders to bring consensus on a new and comprehensive international climate policy framework.
