Redistributing power: how pooled funds are changing the funding landscape

Building on the Joseph Rowntree Foundation's research on the value of pooled funds, this session is a conversation between those who are doing in it practice, including Migration Exchange, The Movements Trust, Power of Pop and the Democracy Fund.

The Joseph Rowntree Foundation report ‘Shifting Power: Exploring the value of pooled funds in the UK funding landscape’ made a clear case for pooling funds. This session builds on the research in the form of a conversation between those who are doing in it practice, including Migration Exchange, The Movements Trust, Power of Pop and the Democracy Fund. 

We’ll be exploring how to maximise the potential opportunities and benefits, and how to overcome the challenges. In particular, we’ll focus on what we’re learning about using pooled fund models to develop equitable funding practice and redistribute power. And we’ll also hear more about Collaboration Circle, a new space established by London Funders to support the pooling of pounds, people and power.

The Festival is open to all members of London Funders. Unless otherwise specified, we are not able to accept bookings from non-members. If you’re a funder and interested in becoming a London Funders member, please find out more here.
