DAY 1 CONCURRENT SESSION | Shifting Power: Understanding Advocacy as an Equity Strategy
In recent years, many funders have focused on how to better infuse equity into their philanthropy, and, separately, on the role of advocacy in their work. What few have realized is that these two concepts are deeply intertwined.
The systemic imbalances of power that give rise to advocacy work are also at the heart of many of the pressing challenges facing communities of color. Forward-thinking funders looking to have impact must address both. This session will explore the connection between race, power, inequity, and pressing social issues.
