Critiques of philanthropy note that we often fund only incremental change. Creating more systemic impact is furthered when funders interact differently with their grantee partners and adopt more of a collaborative, learning, adaptive approach in how they plan and how they fund. This session will use an equity and racial justice lens to examine how to support more systemic impact and draw lessons from funders and organizations that they support. How and why does committed long-term funding practically make a difference? What systemic results are emerging from participatory grantmaking practices? What challenges exist in foundations in privileging those proximate to the goals philanthropy aims to support? How does senior leadership need to address those challenges, and whose examples should we learn from?
