The global aid and development sector is in crisis.

We’re seeing the worst downturn in 27 years.

Government funding is shrinking (the US and 16 other governments are cutting their ODA budgets), while humanitarian need has tripled in the last 7 years.

Right now, 320 million people are counting on urgent support.

Following our Emergency Briefing with Philanthropy Australia, Unlock Aid, Adara Group and World Vision in March, AIDN was pleased to host Roundtables in Melbourne and Sydney last week focusing on the changing face of global aid in 2025.

πŸ‘‰ The Sydney event was led by AIDN’s Julie Rosenberg, and featured Daniel Wordsworth (CEO of World Vision Australia) in conversation with Ray Martin AM (Award-winning Australian journalist).

πŸ‘‰ The Melbourne event was led by AIDN’s Simon Lewis and Philanthropy Australia’s Krystian Seibert, and featured Daniel Wordsworth in conversation with Audette Exel AO (Founder and CEO of Adara Group).

AIDN’s mission of “more” and “better” giving and investing to international causes has never been more important.
