The national philanthropy forums bring together members of the philanthropy sector, civil society, and multilateral agencies to contribute toward national development in each of the EAPN member countries. The forums are convened independently to discuss interventions on national development, philanthropy, and civil society partnerships with respective governments for development.

EAPN supports the convening of these forums to ensure the philanthropy agenda is articulated and the voice of philanthropists is heard in each country and collectively across the region
