Bridging the Gap: Philanthropy’s Role in Addressing Unmet Challenges (Invite only)

-

From the climate crisis to economic upheaval, it is more evident than ever that strategic philanthropy can address critical funding gaps that go unmet by other sectors, including addressing the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). According to estimates by the SDG Philanthropy Platform, $651 billion in philanthropic giving for the SDGs could potentially be unlocked by 2030. Along with collaboration and partnership, private philanthropy’s risk tolerance and systems change approach is well-suited to address the deep-seated intersectional issues included in the SDG framework and 2030 agenda. Join us in exploring how to maximize impact and tackle the biggest global challenges through philanthropic initiatives and actions to ensure that people and planet thrive.
