Promoting Unhindered Cross-border Giving

April 11, 2023

Receiving and using funding is the means for civil society to operate and implement activities toward a more just, inclusive, and sustainable world. Independent and enabled philanthropy, therefore, is central to the support for civil society's role in the social and democratic ecosystem of any country. However, restrictions on cross-border giving that supports local civil society and philanthropic ecosystem building are growing. These restrictions represent major hurdles to philanthropy worldwide. This policy paper by WINGS provides recommendations to governments and financial authorities about how they can promote policy reform of regulations that currently disincentivise or prohibit cross-border collaboration among philanthropic entities worldwide. French: https://wings.issuelab.org/resource/encourager-les-dons-transfrontaliers.html Spanish: https://wings.issuelab.org/resource/promoviendo-mejores-condiciones-para-las-donaciones-transfonterizas.htmlPortuguese: https://wings.issuelab.org/resource/promovendo-doacoes-transfronteiricas-sem-obstaculos.html

April 11, 2023

Recibir y usar fondos es el medio para que la sociedad civil opere e implemente actividades hacia un mundo más justo, inclusivo y sostenible. La filantropía independiente y habilitada, por lo tanto, es fundamental para el apoyo al papel de la sociedad civil en el ecosistema social y democrático de cualquier país.Sin embargo, están aumentando las restricciones a las donaciones transfronterizas que apoyan a la sociedad civil local y la creación de ecosistemas filantrópicos. Estas restricciones representan obstáculos importantes para la filantropía en todo el mundo.Este documento de política de WINGS proporciona recomendaciones a los gobiernos y las autoridades financieras sobre cómo pueden promover la reforma política de las regulaciones que actualmente desincentivan o prohíben la colaboración transfronteriza entre entidades filantrópicas en todo el mundo.English: https://wings.issuelab.org/resource/promoting-unhindered-cross-border-giving.htmlFrench: https://wings.issuelab.org/resource/promoviendo-mejores-condiciones-para-las-donaciones-transfonterizas.html

Encourager les dons transfrontaliers

April 11, 2023

Recevoir et utiliser des financements est le moyen pour la société civile d'opérer et de mettre en œuvre des activités vers un monde plus juste, inclusif et durable. La philanthropie indépendante et autorisée est donc essentielle au soutien du rôle de la société civile dans l'écosystème social et démocratique de tout pays.Cependant, les restrictions sur les dons transfrontaliers qui soutiennent la société civile locale et la construction d'un écosystème philanthropique se multiplient. Ces restrictions représentent des obstacles majeurs à la philanthropie dans le monde.Ce document politique de WINGS fournit des recommandations aux gouvernements et aux autorités financières sur la manière dont ils peuvent promouvoir une réforme politique des réglementations qui découragent ou interdisent actuellement la collaboration transfrontalière entre les entités philanthropiques du monde entier.English: https://wings.issuelab.org/resource/promoting-unhindered-cross-border-giving.htmlSpanish: https://wings.issuelab.org/resource/promoviendo-mejores-condiciones-para-las-donaciones-transfonterizas.html
