Making Philanthropy Developmentally Effective

项目摘要

This project builds on two previous research projects. The first, (ES/1033890/1) investigated the 'philanthroscape' of Colombo focusing on the actual and potential role of charity and philanthropy in supporting development. This indicated that most charity takes place within specific social groups and reinforces existing social differences. Interventions are relatively unplanned and mainly consist of simplistic forms of social protection rather than address underlying causes of poverty and marginalisation. The research aimed to influence stakeholders through knowledge exchange meetings, training workshops and policy notes. We also encouraged various international agencies to support links between indigenous charitable organisations and local development organisations through distributing our policy notes and visiting major players.In the course of the research it became clear that there was considerable demand within the charitable sector for assistance in defining more sustainable and effective activities amongst Sri Lankan organisations, the general public and the corporate sector. This led to a second project (ES/L007819/1). Our conceptual framework was based on the key finding that while many Sri Lankan charities and philanthropists often lack knowledge of best 'principles' and 'practices' of effective philanthropy, CSR, and social business to deliver real change. This was the basis for a series of training days, associated activities and materials. The workshops were mounted with CSR Lanka. Our target for participation was 105: 130 attended the workshops and the feedback was overwhelmingly enthusiastic.Whilst implementing this latter project and in subsequent discussions the considerable demand for further training sessions became evident. In Colombo this involves assistance in generating sustainable linkages between donors and recipients and making available knowledge and skills enabling stakeholders to engage in effective decision making. This project will mount a series of advanced workshops addressing such issues. As in the last project, training material will be made available in all three of Sri Lanka's official languages. The target number of participants is 50 decision makers.One of the issues raised during the workshops was the need for some sort of online register or map allowing donors and beneficiaries to interact with each other, recognise potential area for collaboration and areas of synergy. This will be addressed through establishing a network using open source software (Ushahidi) and lodging it with either the BC or CSR Lanka to ensure sustainability.Another is the need to bring state and parastatal organisations into conjunction with the charitable and private sectors. To this end, policy forums will be held at the start and end of the workshop series, both as a way of encouraging governmental involvement and ensuring aims and objectives reflect national development priorities, but also as a way of promoting uptake of our findings. We were surprised at the number of applicants for our workshops from the north and northeast of Sri Lanka. Here, there is an ongoing process of reconstruction. Charitable organisations are active but in a relatively unfocused way and with little understanding of development. Local organisations are finding it difficult to create and maintain partnerships with donors. Interest has been expressed in the workshops mounted during the previous project, and during this project a series of revised workshops will be held in Jaffna. The target number of participants is 50.In our first project we attempted to interest major donors in our research and its implications for policy. This resonated with some of the activities of the ADB which has expressed interest in working with us to encourage larger philanthropic organisations to support smaller agencies. To meet this need a seminar will be held in Singapore in association with the ADB.

这个项目建立在以前的两个研究项目的基础上。第一份报告（ES/1033890/1）调查了科伦坡的“慈善景观”，重点关注慈善和慈善事业在支持发展方面的实际和潜在作用。这表明，大多数慈善活动发生在特定的社会群体中，并加剧了现有的社会差异。干预措施相对没有计划，主要是简单的社会保护形式，而不是解决贫穷和边缘化的根本原因。这项研究旨在通过知识交流会议、培训讲习班和政策说明影响利益攸关方。我们亦透过派发政策简报及访问主要机构，鼓励各国际机构支持本地慈善机构与本地发展机构之间的联系。在研究过程中，很明显，在斯里兰卡组织、公众和企业部门之间，慈善部门在确定更可持续和有效的活动方面有相当大的需求。这导致了第二个项目（ES/L007819/1）。我们的概念框架是基于一项重要发现，即尽管许多斯里兰卡慈善机构和慈善家往往缺乏对有效慈善、企业社会责任和社会企业的最佳“原则”和“实践”的了解，以实现真正的变革。这是一系列培训日、相关活动和材料的基础。讲习班是由斯里兰卡CSR组织的。我们的目标参与人数是105人：130人参加了研讨会，反馈非常热烈。在执行后一个项目期间以及在随后的讨论中，对进一步培训课程的大量需求变得明显起来。在科伦坡，这包括协助在捐助方和受援方之间建立可持续的联系，并提供知识和技能，使利益攸关方能够参与有效的决策。该项目将举办一系列解决这些问题的高级讲习班。同上一个项目一样，将以斯里兰卡所有三种正式语文提供培训材料。参与者的目标人数是50名决策者。研讨会期间提出的问题之一是需要某种在线登记或地图，使捐助者和受益者能够相互交流，认识到潜在的合作领域和协同作用领域。这将通过建立一个使用开源软件（Ushahidi）的网络来解决，并将其提交给BC或CSR斯里兰卡以确保可持续性。另一个是需要将国有和半国有组织与慈善和私营部门结合起来。为此目的，将在系列讲习班开始和结束时举行政策论坛，这既是鼓励政府参与和确保各项目的和目标反映国家发展优先事项的一种方式，也是促进吸收我们的研究结果的一种方式。我们对来自斯里兰卡北部和东北部的工作坊申请人数感到惊讶。这里有一个正在进行的重建过程。慈善组织是活跃的，但相对不集中，对发展的理解也很少。地方组织发现很难与捐助者建立和维持伙伴关系。有人对前一个项目期间举办的讲习班表示兴趣，在本项目期间，将在贾夫纳举办一系列经修订的讲习班。参与者的目标人数是50人。在我们的第一个项目中，我们试图引起主要捐助者对我们的研究及其对政策的影响的兴趣。这与亚行的一些活动产生了共鸣，亚行表示有兴趣与我们合作，鼓励大型慈善组织支持小型机构。为了满足这一需要，将与亚洲开发银行联合在新加坡举行一次研讨会。
