Asia Philanthropy
Congress 2023
2023.12.01
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
To achieve an inclusive society in which all individuals can demonstrate their abilities to the fullest.
Asia Philanthropy Congress
The Asia Philanthropy Congress was launched in 2022 as a venue for inviting the leaders of organizations in the philanthropy sector, especially foundations engaged with addressing social issues in the Asia region, and promoting cooperation and coordination aimed at solving these issues. Philanthropic activities––meaning both charitable work and social contribution––have an advantage in that they allow the swift provision of assistance in areas where public assistance from government agencies, corporate activities, or social investment cannot offer sufficient solutions. The congress gathers the leaders of the Asian philanthropy sector, especially from foundations that play a leading role in such activities, aiming to identify solutions together. The theme of the 2nd congress is diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I). DE&I serves as the fundamental concept for us to improve society so that no one is left behind and everyone is given equal opportunity for social participation. All sessions in the congress will revolve around the core theme of DE&I, discussing related topics from various angles.
