Episode 34: Voices from the Field - A Conversation with Nick Jaffer

Our voice from the field this episode is Nick Jaffer, President & CEO (Asia Pacific) at Global Philanthropic in Sydney, Australia. Listen in to hear how Nick went from backpacking in Europe to a stint in banking on his way to a 30-year (and counting) career in fundraising. Nick shares the key themes from Global Philanthropic’s recent annual worldwide forum ‘Talking Philanthropy’ which focused on the philanthropic ecosystem in Asia. With a culturally deep-seated notion of giving, hear how a more intentional approach to philanthropy is taking root in the region and why the government is a critical partner in driving this change—in Asia and across the globe.
