Within this context, why do fundraisers matter? Acclaimed thought leader and author Jeroninio ‘Jerry’ Almeida will take you to the strongly beating heart of the matter, looking at unsung heroes and what makes them tick. Where should we look for change beyond fundraising? Jack Sim – artist, joker, and founder of the World Toilet Organisation – will make you think, make you laugh, make you look at things originally freshly, and memorably!

This is about fresh approaches to problem solving. This isn’t just about generating fresh strategic ideas, it’s also about learning how to benefit from the approach of Liberating Structures.

Informal sharing: outside of the formal sessions, IFC Asia is characterized by generous-spirited sharing of knowledge and insight. The connections made and insights gleaned from informal conversations are often an important take-away for participants.

Across the whole programme you will find sessions to satisfy participants from any form of social good andfundraising. Additional IFC Asia benefits? While we know we deliver tremendous value in terms of learning, there is

also a wider significant benefit to attending IFC Asia that is no less important.

We know from years of experience that people who attend IFC events gain a refreshed sense of purpose and drive which benefits both them personally and for their organisations.

While tangible learning is vitally important, we find that organisations who send multipleparticipants also gain greatly from enhanced team spirit.
