Yale Philanthropy Conference 2021

Launched in 2004, the Yale Philanthropy Conference is a student-run convening held at the Yale School of Management, and host to philanthropic and nonprofit leaders who seek to tackle the social sector's most pressing challenges.

 

Taking place virtually, the 2021 conference will examine philanthropy’s power and purposes, diving deep into the sector’s history and exploring its boundaries, limitations, and opportunities, with a special focus on how philanthropy has both contributed to and worked to dismantle inequities. The conference will bring together donors, practitioners, fundraisers, scholars, and advisors to critically evaluate the prevalent principles of and trends in grant making and investing and re-envision how the field can continue to evolve.
