Episode Synopsis
This special recap Natural Collisions episode highlights the 2022 Detroit Capacity Building Forum. The forum was focused on one thing: investing differently in our nonprofits and our communities.Conversations about investing often center on funders and those with financial power. When we reframe the conversation to include nonprofit employees, consultants, organizers, social justice advocates, and community residents, we open the way for transformative possibilities.The goals of the Detroit Capacity Building Forum were:1 - Explore how our ecosystem can invest differently in organizations, ideas, and people2 - Honor those working to create more equitable funding landscapes3 - Create a playbook that redefines investing and guides movements now and for the futureThe Detroit Capacity Building Forum was a collaboration between Co.act Detroit and Michigan Community Resources.
