About this event
This session is part of a three-part curriculum and is only open to registrants of the Grantmakers in Action series.
Grantmakers In Action is a learning series to plug into conversations and movements around:
- Centering racial equity in your grantmaking;
- Alternatives to the traditional grantmaking cycle;
- Partnership models; and
- Power dynamics in your role and leveraging your leadership.
Participants will leave this three-part series with a deep knowledge of the “art of grantmaking” and the latest trust-based practices. Register for this series to connect with a community of grant management peers while you level up your grantmaking toolbox for 2024!
Session 1: Unpacking My Role and the Grant Cycle
Session one is an opportunity to rethink your role and unlearn the conventional grantmaking cycle! We will spend time unpacking the program officer job, covering topics such as driving racial equity in funding decisions and navigating ambiguity. We will explore models to incorporate equity into your grantmaking, including concepts of participatory and trust-based practices. This session will spotlight real world examples of funders who are implementing these practices, and lessons learned along the way. There will also be time to meet your peer community and tap into our collective knowledge.
