P4NE

Partners for a New Economy is an international philanthropic fund focused on transforming our economy for nature and all people to flourish. We were founded in 2015 by the MAVA, Oak, Marisla and KR Foundations, to address the root causes of environmental degradation that lie within our economic system. In 2020 we were joined by Laudes and Ford Foundations, by Omidyar Network in 2022 and Hewlett Foundation in 2023... A decade ago, our founding Partners were curious about why the conservation efforts they were funding were individually successful, yet the overall problems kept getting worse. After much discussion and the diagnosis that the economic system was to blame, Partners for a New Economy was born in 2015. P4NE developed its grant-making portfolio across money and banking, enterprise and new economic thinking. More funders started to become interested in the agenda, and our areas of focus developed and deepened.
