9th East African Philanthropy Conference (EAPC) Reports
The 9th East Africa Philanthropy Conference at Serena Kigali convened funders, practitioners, researchers and policy actors to interrogate how philanthropy measures impact, mobilises domestic resources, and prepares ecosystems for coordinated action. Sessions ranged from critical labs on data, metrics and impact narratives to provocative panels on domestic capital and practical workshops on ecosystem readiness. Across the convening, participants challenged conventional measurement systems, explored pathways to make local capital visible and accountable, and prototyped approaches for building capital that remains rooted in community priorities. These reports capture session summaries, reflections, and practical takeaways for funders and practitioners seeking to align resources with long‑term, locally led change.
