Is breaking silos finally happening—or is it still all talk and no action?

Continuing to work in silos won’t get us anywhere when it comes to solving what truly matters.The real question now is: How do we build systems?Are there examples and practices we can learn from? And what does it take to break silos—for good?

Join us TheSidebar, Skoll Forum, for an animated panel discussion:

Breaking Silos, Building Systems: Cross-Sector Partnerships for Scalable, Sustainable Impact

📅 Wednesday, April 2 | 🕚 11:00 am – 12:00pm GMT

Join us on Tuesday, 29th April 2025, at 11:00 EDT / 16:00 GMT / 17:00 CET to explore how localisation can help us through these difficult times.

I teamed up with Rania Fazah, who has over 20 years of experience in programme evaluation, to bring you this special webinar packed with valuable tips.

What does trust-based philanthropy mean, and what does it take to put it in practice?

At PhilanthroPower, change is possible when trust is at the centre of partnerships. I’m thrilled to co-lead a conversation on “Trust–Based Philanthropy: Resourcing Change Through Relationships, Flexibility and Shared Power” kindly hosted by TheSidebar, Skoll Foundation.

We’ll explore questions including:

• What does it take to truly practice trust-based philanthropy, beyond rhetoric?
• What challenges and opportunities are in scaling trust-based models across diverse funding ecosystems?
• How can intermediaries and collaborative funds help shift the power dynamics between funders and grantees?

Whether you’re a funder, nonprofit practitioner, or ecosystem builder, join us today for an open, reflective discussion.
