Alternative Funding Strategies
Leaning into strengths for different outcomes
Senior leaders are expected to navigate uncertainty with clarity and confidence. With shifting landscapes and cuts in foreign aid, start with current funders. Build clarity by sharpening the story of how their organization is meeting this moment. Build confidence by leveraging peers to identify collaborative ways to meet shared goals, such as shared funders and complementary resources.
Specifically, they will:
- Gain a greater perspective of how funders are responding
- Check understanding of their current donorsā context
- Build confidence in dynamically evolving their organizationās storyĀ
- Explore how they can partner radically and collaboratively with fellow implementers to meet shared challenges
- Gain access to a network of leaders across regions, sectors, and functional areas
This program will be offered in English (Zoom automated captions available in 35 languages)
Who Should Attend:
Senior leaders who:
- Are responsible for setting or executing their organizationās funding strategyĀ
- Can devote the time to learn and grow with peers across the globe
We recommend two leaders from a venture participate together. Participating with a colleague fosters accountability and thought partnership that make it easier to share learnings across a venture.
