Thank you for watching the 2021 Innovations in International Philanthropy Symposium Workshop Evaluating Impact! Speakers: Sebastian Frias, Program Manager, W.K. Kellogg Foundation Joseph Lee, Philanthropic Advisor, The Philanthropic Initiative (TPI) Leslie Pine, Managing Partner, The Philanthropic Initiative (TPI) For funders who are working to advance equity and social justice outside of the US, assessing funding opportunities and impact can present unique challenges. In addition to cross-cultural competency, funders can do much to elevate voices that are unlikely to have a seat at the table with those in power; engage in conversations with grantee partners and others about issues involving identity, power, privilege, and race; and design theories of change and evaluation approaches that acknowledge capacity constraints and other challenges. This session explores how funders can do more to center equity in how they design strategies, find and assess funding opportunities, evaluate impact, and incorporate feedback loops to modify strategies in ways that can ultimately achieve greater impact.

Speakers: Gerald Abila, Founder, BarefootLaw Katie Bunten-Wamaru, Co-CEO, African Visionary Fund Faraja Nyalandu, Founder and Executive Director, Shuler Direct Atti Worku, Co-CEO, African Visionary Fund The importance of investing in proximal leaders was reinforced in the last year as the world witnessed their innovation and efficiency in responding to their communities’ needs amid an unprecedented global health pandemic.
