How is the philanthropic sector responding to the interconnected inequities laid bare by the COVID-19 pandemic and the national movement against police brutality and racism? Is this time of acute social upheaval leading funders to reevaluate their generally siloed approaches and consider what it will take to address today’s challenges in transformational ways?

This resource explores these questions and presents a snapshot of a sector that appears receptive to new ways of working, has access to approaches that suggest promise for making transformational change, but is moving cautiously and at times hesitantly toward undertaking the types of fundamental institutional realignment that will enable approaches with the greatest promise for delivering systemic equity and justice.
