How can we as funders create the conditions for lasting systemic change?
This session explores reflections from Cripplegate Foundation’s five-year place-based partnership, which brings people together across sectors—including both lived and learnt experience—to improve outcomes for future survivors of domestic abuse.
We’ll examine:
- How funders can work together with diverse partners to drive long-term systems change.
- Ways to convene, resource, and create space while ensuring equity of voice and power.
- A participation model where lived and learnt experience shape the work together over time.
- The challenge of articulating and evaluating work that evolves through collective input.
- The dynamics of public systems vs. civil society-led change.
Expect candid discussions with partners with lived experience and from statutory, voluntary, research sectors exploring real-world challenges and actionable insights for working in this way.
