Explore the evolving spectrum of capital for change.
To meet the scale of today’s challenges, which traditional funding models are no longer adequate to resource, organisations are rethinking how they finance impact. Blending philanthropy, investment, earned income, and innovative funding mechanisms is building more resilient futures.
This workshop brings together strategic insight and real-world experience to explore what alternative financing models actually look like in practice. You will examine the changing funding landscape and explore how organisations are combining different forms of capital to sustainably support social impact.
Alongside practical frameworks and examples, you will discover the real-world journey of building for-profit social impact enterprise WaFunda, including the opportunities, tensions, risks, and breakthroughs involved in creating an alternative financing model within an African context.
Designed for fundraising leaders, nonprofit professionals, and social impact practitioners, this workshop will move beyond theory to help you think more strategically about financial sustainability, organisational positioning, and how to unlock new forms of support in a rapidly changing environment.
