Research
Central to our ethos is the fundamental value we place upon research. ILP, therefore, aims to further cultivate philanthropy in Israel by researching and disseminating critical scholarship in law, economics, political science, psychology, social work, sociology and the humanities, providing valuable insights that can contribute to the formulation of a robust policy for philanthropy.
Education
ILP aims to provide students, lawyers, jurists and practitioners in philanthropy with the training and tools to assume their role as agents of social change and advocates of philanthropy.
Community Outreach
Attentive to practitioners and other agents in the field, ILP hosts and attends a series of annual events, such as international conferences, roundtable forums and working-group discussions to create a platform for dialogue among the non-profit, philanthropic, business and government sectors.
The meetings are a platform for learning, creativity and collaborations. A prominent example of their fruits is Israel's first donor advised fund - Keshet - the seeds for its establishment were sown at a round table meeting as part of the Institute's activities in 2016 and the Institute continues to support its activities.
