The “Future-Proof Funding Initiative” has been launched together with SwissFoundations and ConSense

As a first step, a survey was conducted among SwissFoundations members. The survey showed a high level of participation with 111 responses, predominantly from foundation executives (73%). 68% of respondents reported that they adapted their funding strategy in the last five years, which indicates the current dynamics in the funding sector. Respondents also shared their interests and challenges on the topic of future-proof funding.

Based on the survey results, an initial package of activities for members was developed together by the Center for Philanthropy Studies (CEPS) at the University of Basel, ConSense Philanthropy Consulting and the project committee formed by SwissFoundations members.
