About this event

In collaboration, Arthan Careers, Amani Institute and the University of Chicago Trust are hosting a conference series to ‘demystify social impact careers.’ The conference series will launch in Delhi, hosted by the University of Chicago Center, on April 24th, 2019.  This day-long event will focus on exploring careers in social impact, across all levels, and will showcase the diversity of career options available to those interested in moving beyond the status quo. Subsequent events will be held in Mumbai and Bengaluru (Dates TBD ).

The Why

While the widespread notion is that social sector careers mean low pay, self-sacrifices and working at an ‘NGO’, this does not take into account the evolution of the sector and the myriad options in the social sector in recent years – from social enterprises to impact investing to fellowship programs to even traditional NGOs offering opportunities more aligned with corporate skills than in the past.

What The Event Aims To Do

Demystifying Social Impact Careers will discard the traditional sage-on-the-stage conference format and curate meaningful and inspiring conversations amongst attendees about where the field of social impact is going, what opportunities lie therein, and how every one of us can do our part to leave the world better than we found it.

Who Should Attend

All those interested in learning about the variety of opportunities within the social impact sector.
