What We Do

The Dawood Research Institute (DRI) is dedicated to advancing the study and practice of philanthropy within the African context. We operate as a central platform for dialogue, convening scholars, NGOs, and industry experts to critically examine the contemporary practices, challenges, and future prospects of giving across the continent. Through initiatives like our international conferences, DRI facilitates the sharing of high-quality research, encourages policy-relevant discourse, and actively works to enhance the visibility and impact of African-led philanthropic models.
