ABOUT FUTURE WORLD GIVING

From 2013 - 2017 the Future World Giving project created, over a suite of reports, a policy framework to help governments seize the potential for rapidly growing middle class populations to engage in philanthropy.

Building trust in charitable giving
This report highlights some extremely worrying trends around the world and states that regressive policies towards charities risks undermining public trust and threatens to stifle the growth of charitable giving.
Unlocking the potential of global philanthropy
This report aims to estimate the possible extent of charitable giving around the world if governments and the voluntary sector were to harness the potential of the huge expansion of the middle classes.
Enabling an independent not-for-profit sector
This report warns that poor legislation on not-for-profit campaigning and independence could jeopardise efforts to promote giving among new generations of middle class people emerging across the world.

ADDITIONAL RESEARCH

Gross domestic philanthropy - An international analysis of GDP, tax and giving
This report details not only the relative values and limits of incentives but also profiles how civil society organisations (CSOs) gain donor incentivised status, how donors claim incentives, and the various forms that incentives take.
Donation States - An international comparison of the tax treatment of donations
Tax incentives can play an important role in encouraging people to give money to charitable causes. This report compares the tax incentives on offer for giving and the system through which they are offered in 26 nations.
