April 2, 2025The International Fundraising Congress (IFC 2025) returns on 14-17 October this year, again taking place in the Netherlands, and in a hybrid format.
The Resource Alliance, which is behind the event, has already announced this year’s masterclasses. These intensive, expert-led, small group sessions are held ahead of the main conference programme and selected to address the most pressing needs currently affecting the sector. They provide attendees with the opportunity to connect with industry thought leaders and develop critical skills to help them both thrive and meet the evolving needs of the sector.
This year the sessions will cover a range of topics from capital campaigns and faith-based fundraising to systems thinking and artificial intelligence. They are presented in two categories: full-length masterclasses held across two days and mini masterclasses that run consecutively, and run across the first two days of the event programme.
Ruby Chadwick, director of programmes at the Resource Alliance, comments:
“The world is at a pivotal juncture. The USAID crisis and increasing restrictions on fundraising globally have exposed the risks we face when we depend on singular funding streams. Income diversification is critical, and masterclasses at IFC 2025 this October will cover topics selected to support delegates to navigate these waters, to do their best work, and to grow in their careers and as people.
“They are intensive sessions where participants will be exposed to deep knowledge, insights, and experiences, learning through interactive discussions, real-world case studies, and hands-on activities.”
Delegates registering before the end of March can get 50% off a second ticket or 25% off two individual tickets bought together. More on this here.
