PAX sapiens’ mission is to prevent predictable global catastrophes. We work to foster collective coordination for a more peaceful world. We focus on filling gaps by catalyzing coordination and collective action across the Philanthropic, Private, and Public sectors [P^3]. The PAX P^3 methodology galvanizes and connects philanthropy to the public and private sectors by addressing identified gaps in resources, capacities, and social functions. Our tools are grantmaking and direct engagement in programs that advance closer collaboration among leaders across the three sectors. #PAXP3 #publicprivatephilanthropy # #PhilanthropicLeaders #GrantmakingStrategy #GlobalCoordination
