Activar o Quadro de Activos das Fundacos para Criar Mercados de Capital Liquidos
This paper is written in Portuguese. It asks how foundation assets can be invested for greater social impact without sacrificing financial return objectives - for example, by investing in social enterprises. In organizing the socio-economic activity outside the public sector two options are generally available. At one end of the spectrum, businesses usually incorporate as privately held, profit-maximizing entities. At the other end, organizations that have a charitable purpose incorporate as non-profit entities.
Agregar a Procura - Visar o Impacto
Against the background of extremely high transaction costs in the nonprofit sector, this paper analyzes how philanthropic funding can be targeted in appropriate ways to social entrepreneurs, depending on their being public good or private good social entrepreneurs. Public good type social investments are likely to never provide a direct positive return in economic terms, though they may contribute to economic progress overall, such as the upholding of human rights, and must be funded accordingly.

This paper analyzes the role of awards in accelerating positive social change. Awards are an expression of the fundamental human desire to share, celebrate and recognize.

Fundacoes: Porque e Como Integrar o Sector Publico?
This paper is written in Portuguese. It analyzes the optimal division of labor between foundations and the public sector. Philanthropists enjoy more personal degrees of freedom than leverage over social systems, because public resources vastly exceed philanthropic resources. Given this dynamic, engaging the public sector is one of the more powerful roles that foundations can play in improving society. Working productively with government has the potential to create massive scale and impact.
