The opportunity for philanthropic capital to catalyse positive impact in Asia is immense, and the Philanthropy Asia Alliance will accelerate this. We will harness the strengths, ideas and best practices of members and partners to jointly pioneer philanthropic innovations to realise our bold ambitions as an Alliance to prime Asiaas a force for good.”
Lim Seok Hui, CEO, Philanthropy Asia Alliance: “The Philanthropy Asia Alliance is driven by the immense opportunity to mobilise collective action to catalyse and scale Asian solutions for the world. We will deepen our partnerships, harness our strengths, and forge new pathways to make the impossible possible. We welcome members and partners with the same ambition and bias for action to join us in this collaborative journey of giving and catalytic impact.”
Singapore President Tharman Shanmugaratnam: “Philanthropy Asia Alliance is a significant and much-needed initiative. The challenge we face is unprecedented – combining the need for bolder actions to tackle climate change with the imperatives of job creation and income growth in developing Asia. It can only be addressed through a whole new wave of innovations, in virtually every sector including farming. PAA will bring global and regional philanthropies together to work with governments, businesses, and other stakeholders to catalyse and scale up these innovations.”
Gargee Ghosh, President, Global Policy and Advocacy, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation: “We are pleased to be a member of the Philanthropy Asia Alliance, partnering with Temasek Trust and other global and Asian philanthropies and organizations. We believe in the transformative power of collaborative philanthropy and envision PAA making enduring contributions to address the most important health and development challenges and cultivate a thriving philanthropic ecosystem to help accelerate progress across the region.”
Ray Dalio, Founder, Dalio Philanthropies: “My family and I have built many meaningful relationships over many years in Singapore, and we are excited to continue our partnership with Temasek Trust as a founding member of the Philanthropy Asia Alliance. With our long- standing commitment to ocean exploration and conservation, we are thrilled that one of the areas the Alliance will invest in is in the oceans and we will be supporting two ocean projects, including one led by the National University of Singapore and another led by Conservation International’s International Blue Carbon Institute. Through this Alliance, we look forward to supporting Singapore and the region to help do great things for the world.”
Deepali Khanna, Vice President, Asia Regional Office, The Rockefeller Foundation: “We are excited to partner with the Philanthropy Asia Alliance and join forces for transformational action in Asia, a region particularly vulnerable to climate change. Through our combined efforts and resources, we are committed to tackling the climate crisis.”
Maya Ziswiler, CEO, UBS Optimus Foundation: “It is clear to us that the challenges our world faces cannot be solved alone, and we are aligned with Philanthropy Asia Alliance’s ambitions to foster the impact ecosystem in Asia. As a global philanthropic thought-leader and pioneer in social finance, UBS Optimus Foundation seeks to harness the power of partnerships to drive transformative, scalable, and sustainable change for people and the planet.”
