How have foundations shifted goals, strategies, and practices in response to a new political reality? What approaches to listening and learning from those on the ground work best to ensure funders are armed with the relevant information? How can foundations best affect policy in areas relevant to their program work? What is the role of philanthropy and the nonprofit sector in this unique moment? Learn from peers and share your own experiences in this facilitated, candid conversation.
