Welcome
The Centre for the Study of Philanthropy, Humanitarianism and Social Justice (CPHSJ) has individual and institutional capacities for pro-social, compassionate and caring behaviours as its primary concern.
The centre is dedicated to understanding the social processes and cultural experiences by which people acquire moral dispositions to care for the needs of others. We conduct research into the ways in which our capacity for fellow feeling is socially cultivated, corporately structured, politically mediated, and economically expressed. We are committed to understanding the contributions of philanthropy, charity and humanitarianism to the development of humane forms of society.
