Who Gets to Fund the Future?

​A funder dialogue on how philanthropy can resource grassroots movements, solidarity funding infrastructure and climate justice in a time of rising far-right power.

Far-right forces are organizing across borders, attacking land, food systems, rights, democracy and climate justice. Grassroots movements have been building alternatives long before this moment of crisis.

​This morning gathering will bring together movement leaders, movement-aligned funding networks, popular finance initiatives and funders for a participatory conversation on how resources can move with greater trust, proximity and solidarity.

​The event will include short provocations, space for questions and discussion, and time for connection. Together, we will explore what kinds of funding infrastructure help movements build power, what gets in the way, and how philanthropy can respond with more courage and usefulness in this moment.

Speakers will include:
Loren Cardeli, Executive Director, A Growing Culture

​Luis Carlos Costa, Executive Director, FINAPOP

​Juliana Tinoco, Co-Founder, Global South House

Mamadou Goita, Executive Director, Institute for Research and Promotion of Alternatives in Development, Mali.
