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.

that we are trying to resolve in India's agriculture industry:
1) Lack of Irrigation - In India, only 48% of the country’s “net sown area” is irrigated, leading to very low yield. Lack of a steady and uninterrupted grid electricity supply is one of the main reasons behind this low irrigation.
2) Food Loss - 40% of food is wasted between the field and the end customer due to an infrastructural gap in the cold chain. This leads to at least US$26 billion in losses annually.
3) Low Farmer Income - Losses due to lack of cold chain infrastructure and farmer's inability to connect to farther markets lead to low farmer income.
From the 3 main problems identified above, Ecozen has developed our own patented technological innovations to tackle these issues:
1) Ecotron - Solar Water Pump
The Ecotron is a solar-powered water pump system that offers efficient irrigation pumping & control with solar photovoltaic integration, connected through IoT to enable optimum water output, predictive maintenance, reduced downtime and improved water conservation. This reduces the problem of poor irrigation.
2) Ecofrost – Solar Cold Room
The Ecofrost is a Solar Cold Room that offers portable solar powered on-farm cold rooms for pre-cooling & staging of perishables with IoT based cooling solutions to enable better post-harvest management. The advantages of the Ecofrost include:
