SUMMARY:Class on Philanthropy in Southeast Asia for AIT Students (Closed Event)
DESCRIPTION:SEA Junction Director\, Dr. Rosalia Sciortino\, will talk about philanthropy in Southeast Asia to students who are taking the course Gender\, Enterprise and Organization\, which is offered under the Master in Gender and Development Studies\, Department of Development and Sustainability\, School of Environment\, Resources and Development at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT). The course covers gender analysis of small-scale enterprises and women workers in the informal economy; social security and protection measures; micro credit; social enterprises; gender analysis of organizations and women’s career development and women in NGOs and philanthropy organizations. There are 14 students from Thailand\, China\, Japan\, Bangladesh\, Nepal\, and Myanmar and one of them is a PhD student. They will be accompanied by Prof. Kyoko Kusakabe\, professor at the program and a Founding Partner of SEA Junction (see http://seajunction.org/about-us/founding-partners/) \nThe lecture will present an overview of the evolving state of philanthropy in Southeast Asia\, driven by global and local stimuli and shaped by often conflicting notions of charity\, development\, and business. Despite the lack of a strong enabling environment\, new\, home-grown foundations and local forms of institutionalized giving continue to emerge. At the same time\, changes in the donor landscape and shifts in philanthropic paradigms towards business-like and technocratic approaches affect how development causes are funded. In the process\, gaps have begun to appear in how work by civil society organizations on human rights and social justice is funded; this may jeopardize more equitable and inclusive development. The lecture is based on an article expected to be published in a special issue edited by the speaker of the Austrian Journal of Southeast Asia (ASEAS). \n \nAbout SEA Junction\, OUR Venue on Southeast Asia \nSEA Junction (see https://seajunction.org)  aims to foster understanding and appreciation of Southeast Asia in all its socio-cultural dimensions –from arts and lifestyles to economy and development.
