How Philanthropy is Driving Shared Prosperity in Emerging Markets (Invite only)

St. Regis Saadiyat Island - Mazi Restaurant

Socially inclusive businesses and innovative philanthropists can help drive shared prosperity in emerging markets. Building on themes explored in 2019, the Milken Institute Center for Strategic Philanthropy harnesses the experience and insights of the Institute network to dig deeper into elements influencing social impact. Key topics include untapped philanthropic prospects in global growth markets; opportunities for philanthropy and socially responsible business and investment to ensure delivery of the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development; and the rise of a new generation of leaders and the imminent intergenerational transfer of wealth. The impact of the shift of economic power southward and eastward on the global philanthropic landscape is an issue of strong interest.
