Operating at the Intersection of Grants and Investments
Thursday, December 10, at 10 am ET
The challenges for LGBTQIA* communities in the Global South and Global East will continue to increase with rapid climate change, political instrumentation and a bleak economic outlook exacerbating the situation. LGBTQIA* people are already showing tremendous resilience. As human rights and humanitarian aid funders as well as impact investors, we need to prioritise their efforts to become even more resilient for the longer term. Philanthropic and investment efforts need to integrate across both fields. Different forms of capital, from grants and investments over to blended solutions are needed to support the build out of stronger and more visible systems. Case studies from South Africa and Mexico will illustrate how work at the intersection of grant making and investing can look like. We will also touch on potential entry points to integrate an LGBTQI* lens in the investment strategy of an organisation. This interactive sessions aims to be a space to learn, share, challenge and discuss different approaches and ideas.
