Written By Abi Fawcus

Mark Malloch-Brown, outgoing President of Open Society Foundations, joins our Chief Executive Sara Pantuliano for a candid conversation about the role of philanthropy for global good.

With a 30-year philanthropic legacy, Open Society Foundations is one of the world’s largest private funders working for justice, democratic governance, and human rights.

The conversation covers:

  • The role of philanthropy in a world of escalating conflict and crisis

  • The crisis of legitimacy facing the philanthropic sector

  • Trust-based giving, and new paradigms for philanthropy

  • Why bottom-up social movements and engagement with civil society are so critical.

Mark Malloch-Brown has worked to advance human rights, justice, and development for more than four decades in a variety of roles: with the United Nations, the World Bank, and as a British government minister, as well as with a range of civil society groups and business. He was knighted for his contribution to international affairs and is currently on leave from the British House of Lords.
