Transform – Public Private Philanthropy Partnerships in Practice
The Transform initiative will host “Public Private Philanthropy Partnerships in Practice” online on 19 November.
Philanthropy’s role is changing. As public budgets tighten and civic space comes under pressure, foundations are increasingly expected to step up. They are being asked to convene, broker, invest and share risk alongside governments and business.
Yet the sector is not equipped for this challenge and there are questions on how to collaborate across sectors. A recent sector-wide assessment by Transform found that while 84% of foundations see multi-sector collaboration as essential to their future goals, fewer than half feel confident working with government or the private sector, and only 16% have internal guidance to support partnering. At the same time, some philanthropic organisations have a lot of experience with working in partnership and are eager to share insights.
This webinar will highlight case studies and inform a forthcoming guidance note from Philea and TPI on public-private-philanthropy partnerships (PPPPs) for foundations and philanthropy infrastructure organisations that want to build their partnering capacity.
Transform is a joint initiative by Philea, The Partnering Initiative and WINGS designed to inspire and empower foundations to become partners in transformational impact.
This event is part of Empowering Philanthropy Infrastructure for Change (EPIC), a project co-funded by the European Union.
