Asia Policy Forum: Enabling the Growth of Social Economy in Asia

In partnership with the Asia Venture Philanthropy Network, BMW Foundation, Credit Suisse and British Council; the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) is hosting the Asia Policy Forum on the theme of ‘Enabling the Growth of Social Economy in Asia’.
The Asia Policy Forum is a collaborative effort between influential policy makers, venture philanthropists, impact investors, social entrepreneurs and other key players operating in the social economy in Asia. It offers a convening platform to support governments to build an enabling environment for the social economy to flourish.
The Forum will also act as a platform to advance ESCAP’s project to support policy makers in the region to foster social enterprise and impact investment for Sustainable Development Goals progress. In addition to experts from the partner organizations, the Forum will benefit from contributions by representatives from government, private sector, civil society, academia and United Nations organizations.
