20 participants from China and Europe selected to take part in the Philanthropic Leadership Platform – China Europe 2018
20 participants from China and Europe have been selected to take part in the Philanthropic Leadership Platform – China Europe 2018, a unique initiative that aims to improve the leadership capability of emerging philanthropic leaders connecting philanthropists in Europe and China. The selection process was extremely competitive due to the high standard and quality of all applications. The group of 20 represent the diversity, strength and spirit of the philanthropic sector across Europe and China.
We look forward to welcoming them all to Philanthropy House in Brussels from 10 to 16 September as they dive into this intensive, seven-day leadership development programme and enhance their leadership skills by sharing with each other their knowledge, experience, creativity and concerns.
Philanthropic organisations across the globe are grappling with the same fundamental questions around impact, effecting change, and understanding their role in taking on societal challenges. This programme, which was born from the firm belief that learning from each other is key to tackling such questions, is funded by Stiftung Mercator and led by the EFC in partnership with the China Global Philanthropy Institute.
