Dear Friends of Soristic
Hope you are safe and healthy in the current public
health crisis. This extraordinary time has been even more trying for our
vulnerable communities. Let’s rally and extend support for them as much as we
can.
2019 – Meanwhile, we are
happy to share with you a summary of our activities in 2019. Thank you very
much for your support throughout the year!
Basic Needs Gaps – Soristic
is organising a session on this in Q2, 2020 (subject to change depending on the
public health situation). We hope to share with you some gaps we have
identified in vulnerable communities in Singapore that you can potentially
help. Keep a look out for the event!
The State of Enterprises with Social/Environmental
Impact in Singapore – Soristic is commissioned by British Council
to conduct this study. This in partnership with raiSE and supported by HSBC and
the UNESCAP. The global research project has already been conducted in over 20
countries. The Singapore segment will extend the knowledge base and facilitate
deeper comparison for better policy making. It will also track the changes to
the sector in Singapore, and advise the policy makers on programmes and
initiatives to better respond to gaps and opportunities.
Surveys – As part of
this study, we are running two surveys. If you are an enterprise with
social/environmental impact, or a finance institution investing in such
enterprises, please help us do the surveys to enable ecosystem supporters to
come up with more targeted and relevant policies/support schemes to better meet
your needs!
