FORUM STIFTUNGSWESEN SCHWEIZ

Charitable Foundations as Movers and Innovators?
Invitation BSCC Berne Chapter & StiftungsZentrum.ch GmbH Event 2022
The past years have shown very clearly that as global challenges continue to grow, civil society needs movers and innovators to engage alongside governments, corporations, and individuals to mobilize resources to help build a sustainable and equal future, rising wealth, as well as developing expertise in numerous fields such as research, climate change, health etc.
How important is philanthropy in a Swiss, UK and European context? What are the trends and contributions of philanthropists, foundations, and NGOs to act as movers and innovators? Is philanthropy ready for risktaking, agenda-setting and supporting visionary projects? How can it identify and secure innovative solutions for the future of civil society?
