Strength in diversity? Connecting the dots between community philanthropy, women’s philanthropy and feminist philanthropy
22 Oct 2024
Join an online discussion on Tuesday 12 November!
Back in 2020, the GFCF, together with Serbian feminist activist and consultant, Marija Jakovljević, embarked on a journey of inquiry to better understand the intersections, similarities and differences between “community philanthropy”, “women’s philanthropy” and “feminist philanthropy.” Despite various unanticipated obstacles and delays (not least of which was the COVID-19 pandemic), the process resulted in a substantial research report (and a shorter summary version). The GFCF is now pleased to invite you to an online conversation to discuss the research findings, key insights and connections, and possible new frontiers for exploration and collaboration. We will hear from the report’s researcher and author, Marija, as well as discussants from different parts of the participatory, solidarity and social justice philanthropy space.
