We need a new language for public value that goes beyond profit generation, and to help funders take on new roles: funding the ecosystem and supporting infrastructure for systems change; seeing their role as a multiplier of successful solutions; or supporting learning both ways across sectors; sharing examples and best practice of philanthropic-private sector partnerships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Philanthropy and the private sector June 2019, Wasan Island, Muskoka Lake, Canada The philanthropic and private sectors are indelibly linked as wealth accrual through business is the source of many private and corporate endowments.
