Dasra Philanthropy Week
2026
23rd - 27th February, 2026 | India
This year DPW is getting bigger!
Beyond the Week extends DPW through a series of focused satellite conversations held across India over three months, bringing diverse sector voices together to examine the shifts shaping philanthropy.
Emerging Currents, Shaping Horizons
Emerging Currents,
Shaping Horizons
As India moves closer to 2047, the development and philanthropy ecosystem stands at a pivotal moment. Traditional approaches are giving way to a deeper reimagining of how the sector builds for the future – marked by emerging leadership, trust-based partnerships, intentional capital, and systems-level approaches that are essential to a Viksit Bharat.
DPW 2026 will surface these shifts and bring them into conversation. By centering diverse voices and lived experiences, it will connect the national and global narratives shaping the sector today, offering a shared space to navigate these emerging currents and steer India toward a more equitable future.
