The Future of Education Funding, the Impact of Philanthropy, and Role of Integrated Advancement in Transforming Lives and Society 

As economic tension and societal needs increase demand on public funds, educational institutions are seeking to diversify funding models to support their mission. This includes a growing focus on long-term viability through philanthropy—a concept increasingly endorsed by and incentivised by government around the world.   

As public funding pressures rise, simultaneously educational institutions, governmental leadership, and thought leaders such as CASE, are asked to demonstrate the impact of fundraising and philanthropy for our stakeholders and return on investment for its advancement operations. 

In this Leadership Forum, we will hear from senior leaders from our education institutions, government, and CASE.  You will have the opportunity to contribute to the conversation and learn about global trends from across the region on models for philanthropic investment and collaboration, government incentives around matched giving programmes, and how our sector is ensuring our collective value to society is at the heart of all we do.  

Attendees will contribute to a timely dialogue and expert insights on the evolving nature of philanthropic reform, educational advocacy, and the evolving role of Advancement.   

Important Note: This will run concurrently with the Schools Conference, Leadership Forum, and Deep Dive into Advancement Services on 16 May 2023.
