In 2021, the School of System Change set out to build an online learning environment for change funders from philanthropy, impact investors and the public sector to build systems change capacity. The facilitators wrote up some of our learnings about supporting funder learning journeys: https://medium.com/school-of-system-change/investors-in-change-insights-from-funders-learning-journeys-8fbdbf0a9ff In this session, we will share the main takeaways about how to best support funders starting out in their system learning journeys; where we have heard challenges to effect systems change; and the resources needed to support a learning culture within funder organisations. Join us for in-depth discussions around mapping and funding systems change! We will also introduce the upcoming opportunity to join a module in June 2022!

]]> A lot has been said about Big-Bet Philanthropy. But what about Broad Bet-Philanthropy? What about attaining a broader impact across multiple thematic and geographic verticals? For example, we can help one or two nonprofits or social-good organisations. But what about supporting the infrastructure to help hundreds of thousands of them across the globe? This is not only possible, it has been happening for a long time. But we have only scratched the surface of what is possible. What about significantly improving how we spend billions of dollars every year by helping funders give their money away more ethically, equitably and efficiently? This is happening too, but only to a fraction of the extent that it could be. One of the biggest problems is that funders are too focused on programs, not on enabling capable organisations and leaders to grow and achieve their potential. We need messengers, and many of them to join our Collaborative Media Campaign. We need to make a strong, persuasive case to the public and institutional funders. We need to dramatically change how we think about giving away money so that organisations most capable get the support they need to achieve broad and sizeable next-level change. Please join us!
