Impact of Events on Philanthropy & Development in Australasia
At a time when global philanthropy is growing, gaining visibility and creating much-needed change around the world, many institutions are now facing challenging decisions as they adapt to recent economic, political and public health events as an outcome of the current COVID-19 pandemic. Hence, Marts & Lundy and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) jointly developed a brief survey to discern the magnitude and impact this has had on higher education philanthropy, staff metrics, resources and budget decisions across tertiary advancement operations. The survey asked participants to report on and categorise their activities, results and adjustments based on institutional plans as of August 2020.
