The International Review of Philanthropy and Social Investment is an interdisciplinary international journal for cutting and leading edge primary research on philanthropy and social investment. It is a project of the Centre on African Philanthropy and Social Investment at the Wits Business School in South Africa with wider perspectives. Aimed at the academic and research communities, it explores the emergent and developing field of philanthropy and social investment in Africa and beyond. The initiative is a response to both the research gap in the area as well as lack of a journal dedicated to this field of knowledge and practice. As a result, the journal combines full length academic articles and empirical experiences from practitioners, most of whom have vast knowledge which is seldom documented. The journal is also a bridge between theory and of practice both in the philanthropic and private sector spheres. It is an essential resource for academics, researchers, policy makers and practitioners in the fields of philanthropy and social investment. In short, the journal fills a growing need to develop the international knowledge infrastructure for rapidly expanding interest in this field of human behavior.
