Future of high impact philanthropy initial perspective 2017Future Agenda
We are very pleased to announce a new topic focus for some events and wider discussions during the first half of 2017. Building on to some of the insights gained from previous events, including on the future of wealth and the future of doing good, This new initial perspective explores potential future shifts in the field of High Impact Philanthropy. It is authored by Prof. Cathy Pharoah of Cass Business School London. It highlights some of the issues being raised as the worlds of impact investing and philanthropy increasingly overlap as more organisations and investors seek to help create lasting change. Many are now asking about how donor expectations will evolve, how giving will scale, how best to create and measure impact and where new models within philanthropy will emerge.
To address these and other questions, we are running a series of events over the next few months in London, Mumbai, Singapore, New York and Dubai that will explore the emerging shifts, understand new global and regional priorities and highlight what leaders in the fields of philanthropy and impact investing feel will define success. As with all Future Agenda projects, we will build on THIS initial perspective by bringing together a rich mix of expertise to challenge assumptions, share insights and co-create an enriched, informed future view for all.
If you would like to get involved as participants or hosts, do let us know and we can share more details. Equally if you have any feedback on the initial perspective or other comments do let us know by email, twitter or linked in and we will make sure these are shared and included in to the mix.
At a time where much is being asked of philanthropy and its ability to successfully direct much-needed investment into key areas of challenge and opportunity, we very much look forward to hosting this important debate and sharing insights.
Sustainable Rural Development Funding: Lessons from the Field ruralxchange
A webinar from NARP
Presented by Don Macke (RUPRI Center for Rural Entrepreneurship), David Dangler (National Alliance for Rural Policy Network)
The funding environment for rural development is changing dramatically and Don will share the Center's experience with robust and sustainable funding strategies. He will weave three stories from the field that illustrate a new framework for visioning, designing and executing capitalization game plans in support of regional rural development. Don will then summarize the key building blocks of robust and sustainable funding in the Post-Great Recession environment. There will be time allocated during the webinar for discussion and questions.
EPIP Webinar - Center for Disaster PhilanthropyEPIPNational
Join the Center for Disaster Philanthropy (CDP), Foundation Center, and Emerging Practitioners in Philanthropy for a webinar that explores why--based on current trends and future predictions--foundations will need to improve upon how they respond to disasters to better meet the needs of vulnerable populations globally. Over the course of our webinar, we'll draw on recent research that shows the extent of disaster grantmaking, gaps in the type and nature of funding, and how a better understanding of the "disaster lifecycle" can lead to more effective grantmaking. Vulnerable populations (children, mentally ill, older adults, economically disadvantaged, and others) domestically and internationally suffer the most in times of catastrophe and the private philanthropic community has a unique role in meeting their needs. As part of our hour-long session, we also will explore philanthropic responses to the Global Refugee Crisis and discuss recently released findings from the Measuring the State of Disaster Philanthropy 2015.

Financing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Paris Agreement at the...IIED
This is a presentation by Paul Steele, chief economist at the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) on financing the Sustainable Development Goals and Paris Agreement at the local level.
The presentation was made at the Money Where It Matters (MWIM) event, held in London from 7-8 December 2016, when the presentation framed the following discussions.
The purpose of the MWIM event was to reflect on our insights and explore further how financing mechanisms can more effectively channel resources to the local level, and identify opportunities to increase flows of finance to the local level in new contexts for development assistance and national investment.
Participants at the event also agreed on outstanding questions that require further research on finance for and with local actors to achieve the effective use and management of funds to deliver climate resilient sustainable development.

“In the funding community, if you want systematic change, the way
to get it is through advocacy…Direct services solve the immediate
problem, but systematic change is created through public policy” 3

• What is Advocacy?
– Advancing an idea
– Advancing a position
– Leveraging value
– Catalyzing Change
– Enriching the debate
• When is it lobbying?
– Direct lobbying
– Indirect lobbying
• What is the Problem?
U.S. Foundations –example
– 12% of $30 billion goes for Public
Affairs/Society Benefit vs. 25%
Education Sector
– Charitable organizations spend 2%
on advocacy &lobbying - 16
– Europe % of philanthropy for
advocacy is relatively low
– Foundations tend to define their role
in relation to the state.
– Changing as the role of the state and
philanthropy become strategic

How do you advocate?
6. • Policy advocacy is a process that requires a long-term
strategy
• Every advocacy effort requires insiders and outsiders
• You don’t have to be there, but you have to be there
(Washington, Brussels, etc)
• You can buy access (paid lobbyists)
• What is required to play, is to play

1. Catalyze
global agenda
New Philanthropy & Social Investing
OEBU 2080A – Autumn Semester 2014/2015
• Use foundation voice to maintain
global visibility and momentum
• Help drive global architecture,
including evolving and maturing
RBM partnership
• (Need to ensure that we are
transparent with others
about our agenda and role)
2 Ensure adequate funding for
malaria control and R&D
• Maintain (and grow) commitments
from existing donor base
• Recruit new donors
• "Channeling the energy" of donors in
useful directions (create new vehicles
if needed)

4 Build evidence base to
support the malaria agenda
• Commission research to fill gaps in
evidence needed for policy and advocacy
• Ensure others commit sufficient resources
and attention to gathering evidence (e.g.,
M&E, resistance monitoring, resource
flows, etc)

Our new objectives for the Malaria advocacy strategy
24. Advocacy efforts will focus in targeted areas to maximize impact
• Our strategy, initiatives and grant-making are firmly rooted in our past successful
efforts
– Increasing the visibility of malaria as a global health priority
• But broadened focus to reflect different stage of community, call for eradication
– Implementation, need success stories in Africa
• We will engage additional groups as part of the broader foundation advocacy
agenda, rather than with malaria specific activities
– Other donor countries (outside of US and Europe)
– Private sector
• May broaden our focus in the near future based on evolution of
foundation programs
– Go deep in Europe – build out of European presence

– The ‘Elusive Craft point of view: (spontaneous
discussion)
– The ‘science point of view: framework & indicators:
• ‘Who will acemerginghieve a given change or accomplish a
given task?What will change or be accomplished through the
effort?
• When will the change or accomplishment occur.
• How much change will occur or be the level of
accomplishment?
• How do we know the change or accomplishment has
occurred?
