The Innovation for Social Impact Partnership aims to support promising innovative social enterprises in the Philippines to be able to collectively contribute to the acceleration, achievement, and sustainability of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). ISIP is a project supported by the Australian Government and implemented by the United Nations Development Programme in the Philippines (UNDP Philippines).
