The Global Impact Investment Catalyst Iii Program
vor 3 Monaten
**ABOUT US**
The WHO Foundation (WHOF), launched in May 2020 and headquartered in Geneva, was created as an independent Swiss foundation affiliated with but independent of WHO. Its mission is to mobilize greater private capital and partnership to advance the mission of the World Health Organization (WHO), enabling catalytic impact on the people whose lives rely on WHO’s work and facilitating innovation to maximize the impact of the resources we invest.
WHOF was therefore created as an independent Swiss foundation affiliated with but independent of WHO to marshal new resources from philanthropists, foundations, businesses, and individuals to support its mission: promote health, keep the world safe, and serve the vulnerable, while protecting the neutrality and independence of WHO as the world’s leading health authority. WHOF is a nexus for unique opportunities in global health, facilitating game-changing opportunities between the private sector and WHO. We focus on mobilizing grant income, shared value partnerships, and investment to power WHO’s work.
The WHOF Global Catalyst Program was developed to engage diverse sets of participants who will collaborate with the Impact Investment team in developing initiatives aligned with the Foundation’s impact investing strategy. It also offers Global Catalysts the opportunity to gain first-hand insights into impact investing mechanisms and innovative funding approaches that mobilize diverse forms of capital for global health outcomes.
