AVPN Social Investment Forum Japan 2022

Today, the Asia Pacific faces an estimated annual funding gap of USD1.6 trillion to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and impact capital will have to play a catalytic role in influencing markets and the state.

In the past decade, AVPN’s members and partners in the region have come together to bring about transformative change in the region. We are now at a tipping point in accelerating SDGs action in Asia, and it is critical that we share a clear and ambitious vision for moving capital toward social impact in the next decade.

For the first time in Japan, a key country in Asia where the impact investing market is growing, AVPN will host the Social Investment Forum in Japan on 18 November 2022 as an opportunity to discuss and share knowledge and best practices around social investments in gender, education and economic empowerment issues, which are key areas for achieving the SDGs.

This event is held in conjunction with the Asia Philanthropy Congress 2022, which is hosted by Nippon Foundation in partnership with AVPN and will be held on 19 November 2022 at the New Otani Hotel in Tokyo, Japan.
