Speaker Series: In Conversation With a Philanthropist

Event date: August 27, 2024 HRH Princess Lamia bint Majed AlSaud’s dedication to humanitarian causes and her championing of women’s rights and equal opportunities have earned her a reputation as a trailblazer and a changemaker. As Secretary General and Member of the Board of Trustees at Alwaleed Philanthropies, she helps steer the Saudi foundation’s work as it carries out its mission to “build bridges for a more compassionate, tolerant, and accepting world”. In an intimate, one-on-one conversation with AFF CEO Naila Farouky, HRH Princess Lamia delves into how she and Alwaleed Philanthropies are building those bridges, investing more than $4.4 billion on social welfare and initiating more than 1,000 projects in over 190 countries on issues ranging from women’s and youth empowerment to disaster relief to creating cultural understanding through education. The discussion tackles head-on two topics that many philanthropic organizations grapple with: risk-taking and trust-based grant-making practices. HRH Princess Lamia shares her insights on how embracing risk and trust-based giving can drive more impact and inspire others in the sector to follow suit.
