The world’s business leaders have launched three movements calling on the wealthy to contribute to solving the planet’s issues: by philanthropy while alive, by philanthropy after death and by impact investing.
The 2020 World Economic Forum in Davos called on the world’s 2,150 billionaires, collectively worth about $10 trillion, to give away at least 5% of their wealth every year. These 5% donations would immediately end world hunger (estimated to cost between $7 and $265 billion per year, according to the calculations by GlobalGiving). This is the «Give While You Live» campaign.
