Transforming the Non-Profit Sector
Purpose
- The purpose of this series of interconnected wiki pages is to document and communicate the current developments in various initiatives related to 'Transforming the Non-Profit Sector' so as to coordinate the efforts of all collaborators and co-organisers.
- It also acts as a standing invitation to non-profit groups, private corporations and public sector organisations to co-create and co-organise various parts of the initiative. We welcome students, informal groups and ground up initiatives as well!
Background
In 2020-2022, the Institute of Policy Studies (IPS) and Singapore Totalisator Board (ToteBoard) will collaborate to uplift the capability and capacity of the non-profit sector and support the Public-Private-People partnership movement in Singapore. The flagship activity of this proposed partnership is an annual Conference on Transforming the Non-Profit Sector. In the lead-up to each year’s Conference, IPS will organise a series of smaller scale networks, local learning journeys and overseas study trips in addition to a larger but relatively informal Community Forum—to broaden the dialogue, make new connections and consolidate views. This pipeline of activities have intrinsic value on their own, but also serve as a prelude for the Conference, which will feature overseas keynote speakers and act as an annual focal event to gather the leadership of the non-profit sector to share their transformation journeys and acquire new knowledge on improving their organisations’ capabilities.

Co-Creation Roundtable
IPS and ToteBoard plan to organise a Roundtable to share existing plans and ideas for these initiatives, in order to seek inputs on the Conference themes, format and possible speakers across three years. The session is also an invitation to co-organise various parts of the pipeline of initiatives we have planned—such as hosting networks or learning journeys, scoping a study trip, or co-designing the Community Forum.
Date: TBC sometime between 16-19 Mar, in the afternoon
Venue: TBC
