Great day Hannah Paterson. Opened my mind to what #participatorygrantmaking can be, lots of connections made and ideas to take foward

It’s not about being listened to by decisions makers, it’s about being a decisions maker. That’s the difference #ParticipatoryGrantmaking makes.

Consulting & involving community is NOT same as co-deciding, true power sharing Jen Bokoff #participatorygrantmaking #PEAK2018

Brilliant - all funders can benefit from this approach:
* be intentionally inclusive, reach out to ppl who may be silenced or unheard
* invest in relationships
* give ppl control of a budget
* let go, sit back + watch the magic!
