The Centre for Asian Philanthropy and Society (CAPS), released the 2024 edition of its flagship study, the Doing Good Index. The Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD), has been one of the partners of CAPS in this study.
The study reveals that although the Asian social sector is rapidly digitalising, social delivery organisations are facing challenges in keeping up with technological advancements. These challenges are primarily due to inadequate access to digital infrastructure, lack of capacity, and insufficient donor support. As technology continues to progress, a new type of digital divide is emerging, hindering the social sector’s ability to deliver products and services to the most vulnerable communities.
