The Philanthropist

The Philanthropist – Swiss Phil­an­thropy in Dialo­gue is the leading maga­zine for Switzerland’s non-profit and phil­an­thro­pic sector, published by Sphe­riq. It reaches foun­da­ti­ons, NPOs, poli­ti­cal decis­ion-makers and an enga­ged public. Through conti­nuous online coverage and a weekly brie­fing news­let­ter, it deli­vers up-to-date insights, inter­views, thema­tic features, prac­ti­cal guidance, view­points, as well as data and facts.
Each focus issue is built around a dedi­ca­ted theme deve­lo­ped in colla­bo­ra­tion with key stake­hol­ders. Contri­bu­ti­ons from leading repre­sen­ta­ti­ves of the sector provide depth and perspec­tive and keep readers closely connec­ted to deve­lo­p­ments in philanthropy.
