In recent decades, the ecosystem of philanthropy and private social investment in Brazil has evolved, expanded and developed. We advance in the creation and adoption of practices and capabilities. The field has expanded and diversified, incorporating more and new actors with varied profiles.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the same time, the public challenges we face as a society have also broadened and deepened. New themes add to secular challenges and the sense of urgency demands new approaches, more in line with a highly globalized and interconnected world, as this year has made so evident. Global action resonates in the local dimension in different ways, calling us to find new answers to resolve historical issues related to inequalities and the search for a more sustainable and dignified world for everyone who lives in it.<\/span><\/p>\n

All of this only reaffirms to us that the advances and achievements of the sector need to be, above all, stimuli that reinforce the meaning and importance of thinking about new layers and stages of construction for collective action \u2013 in philanthropy and in society in a broad way \u2013 that are each more in tune with the transformations of a complex world that requires systemic approaches and, therefore, new paradigms of action.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this search, one of the frontiers of our collective action that emerges as a priority is the expansion of our capacity for collaboration.<\/span><\/p>\n

And when the focus is on the action of philanthropy and social investment and their contributions to the public agenda, the idea of collaborative philanthropy has been increasingly present: collaboration between philanthropic actors \u2013 donors or managers of philanthropic resources \u2013 in relation to mobilization , coordination, allocation and\/or management of private financial resources for the production of public good is the definition through which GIFE has guided the concept of collaborative philanthropy. <\/span><\/p>\n

Although collaborative philanthropy has its limits and is not always the best answer, the expansion of initiatives with collaborative architectures between donors and\/or social investment organizations has the potential to add many benefits to the ecosystem:<\/span><\/p>\n
