The Executive Director and the Academic Director of the Centre for Strategic Philanthropy (CSP) have joined the Expert Group of the OECD’s Centre on Philanthropy to support the forthcoming production of Volume 2 of the Centre’s Private Philanthropy for Development report.

Clare Woodcraft and Dr Kamal Munir will provide strategic advice to guide the development of the second volume of the survey which will investigate how foundations have adapted their giving strategy in response to the new development agenda, to global challenges such as COVID-19 and within emerging economies. It will provide foundation leaders, government policy makers and decision makers from civil society with up-to-date open access data and evidence-based analysis on global philanthropy for development. Initial analysis and recommendations are expected to be published in the summer of 2021.

The CSP’s current research on COVID-19 (to be published in October 2020) will inform the work of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) on the response of philanthropists to the crisis. The CSP’s executive team has been actively engaged in the OECD’s dedicated network for foundations, netFWD, since its establishment in 2013.
