On 16-17 October 2000, some 300 leading citizens of Pakistan came together in Islamabad in a major national conference. The head of state set the stage. Government ministers, many other senior public officials, and leaders from business, the media and civil society organizations (CSOs) vigorously conferred for two days and, at the climax of their deliberations, launched a new national organization.\r\nWhat was the topic that had captured the Pakistani national imagination in late 2000? It was not Kashmir, nuclear proliferation, or even the process of political democratization. It was indigenous philanthropy, and, specifically, indigenous philanthropy as a resource for sustainable development.
