not connected to global and national development processes
Why Philanthropy

• Philanthropy is a diverse sector that is growing and expanding worldwide, in
emerging countries due to wealth creation.
• Philanthropy is innovative, piloting new forms of financing such as impact
investing and offering patient capital.
• US foundations giving alone: $51 billion p/a with assets around $670 billion.
• Dynamic sector with long term outlook and commitments to innovation.
• Foundations: asset-based, stated purpose, established income source
institutions, most often programming through civil society organizations and
NGOs.
• Ways of working of governments, the UN and foundations are different.
• Supported by philanthropy pilot interventions often do not reach scale.

SDG PP Global Initiative
• Launched globally in 2014, SDG Philanthropy Platform (SDG PP) is a hub
for philanthropy, governments and the UN to collaborate on the SDGs.
• The SDG Philanthropy Platform is an innovative vehicle to enable
partnerships in global development. It builds bridges by encouraging
philanthropy, the UN, governments, the private sector and civil society to
collaborate. It has enabled innovative partnerships that illustrate the
dedication and promising potential of foundations and philanthropists to
support SDG implementation. Through this initiative, philanthropy is
increasingly adopting a systemic and inclusive approach to funding and policy
work, shifting from fragmented individual projects to long-term collaborative
efforts in line with national priorities and the SDGs.
