Executive Luncheon: Understanding Sphere Standards for Donors

When the stakes are high and the data is uncertain, how do you fund with integrity?

In humanitarian and social impact work, decisions often must be made faster than information can catch up. Yet, the demand for transparency, ethics, and measurable outcomes has never been greater.

This private executive luncheon introduces the Sphere Standards—the world’s most widely recognised framework for quality and accountability in humanitarian action.

Tailored for funders, philanthropists, and senior decision-makers, the 90-minute session offers a concise and practical approach to using these global principles to guide responsible giving, assess proposals, and demonstrate impact with credibility and confidence.

• A clear, non-technical introduction to the Sphere Standards and their relevance to funding oversight.
• A practical framework for evaluating proposals and measuring outcomes against globally recognised benchmarks.
• Insights to strengthen governance, transparency, and donor integrity in your organisation’s ESG, CSR, or philanthropic initiatives.
• Access to a curated peer network of leaders navigating complex giving landscapes.
• A distinctive positioning tool to elevate your institution’s impact narrative and credibility.

This invitation-only luncheon is designed for senior professionals in:

• Corporate and institutional funding
• ESG, CSR, and sustainability leadership
• Philanthropic foundations and strategic grantmaking
• Advisory roles to high-impact donors

A private 90-minute luncheon, featuring guided dialogue and peer exchange.

• Format: Seated executive luncheon, limited to 20 participants
