As part of the Fenomenal Funds Collaboration Grants (link to the intro blog), FemFund (Poland), Women’s Fund Armenia, and Women’s Fund in Georgia came together to form a collaborative on healing spaces. In this blog post, we tell you all about this collaboration and what it hopes to achieve. The work of this group is also connected to the broader theme of collective care, which is being addressed by three other collaboratives.
How do feminist perspectives transform the concepts, practices, and relationships in evaluation and learning? In this unique collaboration, eight movement partners and four national women’s funds explore a feminist approach to evaluation and learning to deepen insights into how gender equality change happens.
How can feminist organizational practices reflect the politics of justice, care, and collaborative leadership? How can new models and ways of working and leading help women’s funds better support feminist movements and challenge patriarchal and colonial power imbalances in philanthropy?
In a competitive environment, how can women’s funds learn and strategize together to drive more and better funds to feminist movements, including in challenging political settings? This question is at the heart of two collaborations supported by Fenomenal Funds.
What happens when you hardwire resilience into collaboration? In this blog post, we will share what we’ve learned about the mechanics of collaboration and what it means to pave the way for collaboration as a tool for resilience.
