This month we explore one of six plenaries for WINGSForum—women in philanthropy. We look at regional cross border trade, philanthropy during national transitions, and the impact of women’s rights movements, along with new articles from Barbara Ibrahim, Ruth Jones, and CAF’s Adam Pickering. We also take a special look at gender and agency in Africa in an interview with Halima Mohamed (TrustAfrica, PSJP).

Downloadable resources include the World Giving Index 2013 (CAF), Advancing Human Rights (Foundation Center, IHRFG), and a new Markets for Good eBook on data.
