Impact Futures by Design

A New Architecture for India’s Philanthropy

India’s development sector stands at a pivotal moment, where growing global connections are creating new possibilities for how philanthropy is designed, shared, and sustained. With one of the world’s largest diaspora communities bringing together capital, expertise, and networks, there is a defining opportunity to build stronger infrastructure that enables more intentional, collaborative giving. The India Philanthropy Forum (IPF) New York City is where this architecture takes shape, connecting diaspora philanthropists, community leaders, and changemakers to shape the future of giving together.

Under the theme ‘Impact Futures by Design: A New Architecture for India’s Philanthropy,’ IPF New York City 2026 creates a space for thoughtful dialogue and shared learning, spotlighting community-led solutions, strengthening cross-border partnerships, and reimagining the frameworks, relationships, and platforms needed to make diaspora philanthropy more connected, strategic, and enduring.
