In NGI, participants will get a 101-level introduction to the art and craft of grantmaking. You will have the opportunity to hear directly from seasoned philanthropic leaders and discuss how to face head-on the most challenging issues currently within philanthropy. We begin the institute looking at the origins and evolutions of philanthropy and hear from three philanthropic leaders on the state of the sector today. Further topics include working with grantees, financial review, funding policy advocacy, and considerations for building a
career in philanthropy. In addition to the experienced, impact-oriented faculty, participants will begin to develop a network of peers as we grapple with what it means to practice effective and equitable grantmaking in ongoing times of unrest and rebellion. NGI will resource you to move resources where they are needed the most.
