Raising Funds from Pakistani Diaspora in the United Kingdom; PCP Finds the Key 

PCP recently published a report on philanthropy of Pakistani Diaspora in the UK which not only estimated the quantum of annual philanthropic contributions by Pakistanis but also highlighted many interesting trends and patterns as well. To further the findings of the Study, an in-depth analysis on how the different socio-economic characteristics such as length of stay in the UK, income, gender and education, influence the giving patterns of diaspora community is required. PCP’s team is working on a paper to find answer to some of the key questions that would help stakeholders understand the giving behaviour of the diaspora community. The first draft of the paper is being reviewed by the experts and would be shared soon with the audiences. STAY TUNED!
