How do your actions today improve the well-being of our environment? In his work, Guatemalan artist Abraham Mendoza Yataz shares the Tz'utujil Mayan wisdom that conservation is learned through actions, not words.

🚨 Research note of the WEEK! 🚨 Trends in forms of civic involvement in the Netherlands between 2008 and 2020 📄 Dutch civil society is seen as exemplary due to its high level of civic involvement. The article shows how civic involvement (membership, donating money, participating in an organization, and volunteering) in the Netherlands has developed between 2008 and 2020. The study is based on high-quality survey data derived from the Longitudinal Internet Studies for the Social Sciences, a household panel aimed to represent the general Dutch population. The research question was: to what extent have forms of Dutch civic involvement in different organizations changed in the years 2008–2020? ✒ Author(s): Maikel Meijeren – Radboud University | Marcel Lubbers – Universiteit Utrecht | Peer Scheepers – Radboud University 📝 The Research note is written by Aleksandra Belina from the Uniwersytet Warszawski / University of Warsaw and Good Network Foundation 🔔 More research notes!

Philea - Philanthropy Europe Association is one of those rare organizations that have set themselves a courageous goal: to truly move our sector of #philanthropy to the next level, to nudge us forward, out of our comfort zones, into the unknown, to embrace what it means to contribute to our world's problems in a way that matches the challenge. Philanthropy has a unique role in our world: it can fund what cannot be funded. It can make impossible things possible. It can raise our aspirations and change mindsets. For that to happen it also has to ask itself some tough questions: - Are we being courageous enough? - Is how we are spending our money fit for purpose?- Are we truly rising to the challenges? - Are we doing all we can? - Are we doing all we must do? And what does that mean for our relationship with #trust in this world, with our partners, with those we serve? I am super excited to explore these questions with such an amazing group of dedicated people next week in #Ghent at #PhileaForum2024 Ashoka #EveryoneAChangemaker with Delphine Moralis Carola Carazzone Raphaela Toncic-Sorinj David Bonbright
The #PhileaForum2024 will see over 100 speakers contribute throughout the programme! The voices joining us at the Opening and Closing plenaries include: - Rutger Bregman, The School for Moral Ambition - Christine Sow, Humentum - Rhodri Davies, Why Philanthropy Matters - Sophie Pornschlegel, Europe Jacques Delors - Damir Sagolj, WARM Foundation - Marie Ringler, Ashoka And many more! Find all the names of who is speaking in Ghent here and let us know who you are most interested in listening to! https://bit.ly/4dTmaOs

At Porticus, we're reshaping philanthropy by emphasising meaningful participation. It's a pivotal step in decolonising entrenched mental models. By embracing collaboration and diverse perspectives, we're driving positive change. Let's challenge the status quo together. #MeaningfulParticipation #DecolonizePhilanthropy
An Introduction: Making Participation Meaningful at Porticus We want meaningful participation to be at the centre of our philanthropic practice. We define meaningful participation as a collaborative process between funders, grantees and people with lived experience who share decision-making power and mutual accountability to ensure positive change. We recognise that all persons involved have equally valuable contributions to bring to the table. Participation is not only a means to an end, it is also the end in itself. We see it as a moral obligation, and we’ve created a set of principles to guide us on the journey. We invite you to join us over the next few weeks as we share our commitment through 5 animations created by Pavel Pazukhin that inform and inspire Porticus’ participation work every day. Join the discussion and share your own experiences in the comments.

On my way to G(h)ent to Philea - Philanthropy Europe Association to discuss how philanthropy can support the climate transition in cities. In my view: 1. Patient support for initiatives, to counterbalance the political back-and-forth and provide organisations with the certainty that allows them to train and support changemakers. 2. Multi-level engagement. Use the mix of local, national and European/international philanthropic organisations to make use of the knowledge in the sector, and help different levels work together. 3. Support infrastructure not projects. Find the ways in which collective support for collective services can help citizen participation and civil society develop for the long term action and long term engagement that we need. Look forward to seeing you there, Kirsten Dunlop Bob DHaeseleer Ilaria d'Auria Alberto Francesco Anfossi Jennifer Clarke & Jesper Nygård.
