The Social Investment Landscape in Asia will be an invaluable re- source for funders and resource providers as they as- sess the opportunities and challenges for philanthropy and social investment in the region. It is designed to be a guide for both new social investors looking to enter the Asian market and existing social investors exploring cross-border or cross-sector opportunities within the region. The Landscape is another way to further AVPN’s mission to increase the flow of finan- cial, human and intellectual capital to the Asian social sector.
