description Work is changing in many ways. Technological advancement, combined with political choices, social forces, and economic trends, could lead to the replacement of traditional jobs, altered employer-employee relationships, demands for new skills, and other changes in the world of work. What do these changes mean for leaders in philanthropy seeking to expand economic opportunities for low- and moderate-income workers? This paper addresses the challenges related to the future of work facing philanthropic leaders who are interested in connecting economically vulnerable individuals and families to opportunities for advancement through work. Written by Maureen Conway, vice president for policy programs and executive director of the Economic Opportunities Program at the Aspen Institute, the paper draws from a series of interviews conducted with more than a dozen individuals in philanthropy, revealing their ideas on the future of work and the implications for their strategies.
