Trust thus needs to be built even when we are merely trying to advance their ideas.
Gotcha.
Picking resources/speakers: Hm, ok. Some good ones which they’d also like..
even doubling current charity spending would hardly run out of things to fund
I am not arguing the upper limit ..
“there are more problems than money/power/people to solve them”
No, there is enough people with funding and agency just the skills to develop solutions and coordination to scale-up the inclusive and sustainable ones at the lowest marginal cost ..
Lost ownership: that sounds like a particularly suboptimal concept. I am sure when you approach the actual people, then it does not apply—they are like ‘why don’t you give us some more expert advice we really like your experts and also they help us apply for some of your funding which we are majorly concerned about—grantwriting’ If there are organizations that are not actually so much about solving problems as they are about caring in a way that perpetuates an unequal relationship and is based on emotional appeal then it can be ok to just let them be, in which case the approach can be: ‘you do you, what do you do here? well, that is very nice—we do some cost-effectiveness analyses for rational philanthropes—they love all these calculations and have grants open’ ‘grants open?’ ‘...’ But perhaps we are exactly agreeing here, or the outcome is equivalent.
Thank you too.
