The Lien Centre for Social Innovation, a partnership between the Lien Foundation and Singapore Management University (SMU), was established to advance the thinking and capability of the not-for-profit sector. Our mission is to inspire ideas and innovations, foster new alliances and facilitate solutions to strengthen the non-profit sector. Our vision is to be a thought leader and catalyst for positive social change in Singapore and beyond. We have been a capacity builder for the venture philanthropy space, supporting organisations such as Social Venture Partners Singapore and AVPN for the Singapore roadshow.

Highlights of the week
Trust-Based Philanthropy
In the face of increasingly complex and, sometimes rapidly, changing needs on the ground, it is crucial to take a step back and reconsider the status quo.
APAC Sustainability Seed Fund 2.0
By leveraging the success of the first round of the APAC Sustainability Seed Fund, AVPN continues to mobilise continuum of capital into supporting climate solutions in the region.
Faith and Giving
Faith, and the values, belief systems, moral codes, and religious doctrines, that underlie it, shape much of philanthropy across the world. From addressing needs in underserved communities to investing in sustainable energy solutions, faith-aligned givers are demonstrating that compassion can be a catalyst for a more just and equitable world. However, the fundamental drivers of faith-aligned giving often remain unexamined.
