We live in an era of intertwined existential challenges: climate change, the rise of authoritarianism, deteriorating social cohesion, and unbridled technological change that is upending our economy, politics, and social relations. Are philanthropy and the social sector up to the task of confronting these challenges? How must philanthropy and the social sector transform their practices, mindsets, and approaches to reckon with these threats? And how can we push beyond them to reshape our economic, civic, and political institutions and build a healthier, more resilient, more equitable, and just society?
The conversation will feature Ann Mei Chang, CEO of Candid and author of Lean Impact, and Michele Lawrence Jawando, senior vice president of programs at the Omidyar Network, in discussion with Rick Cruz, President of Arabella Advisors.
