Learn about each of the finalists in the article below, recently published in Philanthropy Weekly. #philanthropy #givingcircle #giving

War has many victims and perhaps the most tragic are children. War Child Canada has established a radio education program so girls in the Democratic Republic of Congo can learn at home to avoid the risk of sexual attack on the way to school. The program is supported by DECJUBA Foundation after an unlikely meeting on Richard Branson’s island. Learn more about this impactful partnership in the article below, recently published in Philanthropy Weekly. #philanthropy #education

If you’re driving the 1,500km from Alice Springs to Darwin, you’ll want lots of music to keep you company and you’ll need to stop for food and fuel. Cue the supremely innovative idea to scan different QR codes at roadhouses en route connecting you to digital playlists of local contemporary First Nations recording artists from each region you’re travelling through. Your Soundtrack to the Outback is just one of the exciting programs produced by the not-for-profit and peak body MusicNT, whose mission is to grow the Territory’s industry – and share the powerhouse creativity of its artists across Australia.

A fascinating session on supporting Indigenous women-led climate initiatives is taking place this Thursday at 12pm AEDT. International Funders for Indigenous Peoples is a global network that promotes Indigenous leadership and the rights of Indigenous communities worldwide. Learn more below. #philanthropy #climatechange
🚨 #IndigenousWomen play a critical role in combating #climatechange, but their efforts are systematically underfunded. Complex bureaucracy and #financialbarriers have left Indigenous women and their communities without direct access to the climate finance they urgently need. At our upcoming event, on #Wednesday23rdOctober 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM PT, #Thursday24October 12:00- 13:00 AEDT, we will explore innovative funding models to directly support Indigenous women-led climate initiatives and how we can foster equitable, direct funding models that empower Indigenous women in their critical climate work. This second session will be moderated by Jennifer Tauli Corpuz, and @Devi Anggraini, Michelle Gortan, and Michelle Steele will be sharing their learnings. 🔗 #Registertoday: https://bit.ly/4hdbuMj #ClimateAction #IndigenousWomen #ClimateFinance

Long-term unemployed individuals are more likely to start work sooner, earn more and stay longer, if they are employed by a social enterprise, compared to those supported through Disability Employment Services, says a new report. White Box Enterprises has run an Australian-first Payment by Outcomes trial for jobs-focused social enterprises in partnership with the Department of Social Services (DSS). In the article linked below, White Box’s Chief Operating Officer Mark Daniels, who led the project, outlines the results. #research #socialenterprise #unemployment
