A participatory escape room in which groups work through puzzles designed around the practical challenges of moving beyond top-down philanthropy: engaging silent stakeholders, building the skills for community-led funding, and releasing restrictive systems. Come on your own or as a group. Learning happens by doing, with reflection and peer networking to follow.
The session can host up to 32 participants across four rooms and sits alongside the main sessions as an experiential complement to the strand’s core learning, giving participants space to work through the ideas from a different angle.
This session will be particularly relevant if you want to explore the practical and cultural barriers to equitable funding practice in a hands-on, collaborative setting.
