The evolving role of data and evidence in philanthropy, with a focus on how funders and ecosystem actors can use research and insights to drive more strategic, transparent, and impact-oriented giving.

Key themes we hope to explore include:

• How data and learning practices are shaping philanthropic decision-making
• Global lessons on transparency and evidence-building in grantmaking
• Opportunities and challenges in fostering a learning-driven culture in regions where data-sharing is still limited
