This report is based on in-depth conversations with a range of stakeholders— funders, asset managers, intermediaries, and social purpose organisations — unearthing their approaches, best practices and challenges in hearing and integrating end-community voices in the design, deployment, and measurement of their work.
We look at the relationships between these different stakeholders: how the terms and processes of these relationships, and the ecosystem more broadly, serve to facilitate or impede their ability to pursue long-term, systemic impact.
The report also explores the current and prospective scope for collaboration between impact investing and philanthropy to drive transformative change, given that they need to work hand in hand to address development challenges in India.
