Innovation in Strategic Philanthropy: Local and Global Perspectives

This book, part of the International Network on Strategic Philanthropy case studies, examines the role of philanthropy in globalization and lesser-developed economies. It highlights how resource-poor, hybrid organizations in the Global South and Central/Eastern Europe offer innovative models distinct from traditional Western foundations. The research challenges conventional assumptions, demonstrating how these emerging philanthropic institutions develop their own methods, reflecting local needs and capacities, and providing valuable lessons for the Western world.
