SUMMARY:Navigating GAC Funding to Support Local Organizations and Movements
DESCRIPTION:This International Development Week\, we are asking: Can Canadian and international organizations meaningfully support locally led development with GAC funding? \nJoin three Canadian international development organizations (Stephen Lewis Foundation\, Oxfam Canada\, and Inter Pares) and partner organizations (Women in Struggle for Empowerment\, Pakistan and a to-be-confirmed partner) for this thought-provoking\, strategic discussion. \nWe will focus on concrete examples of what has worked and where challenges persist. \nThis conversation will include a deeper dive into our featured organizations’ experiences with the Women’s Voice and Leadership (WVL) program\, the Act Together for Inclusion Fund (ACTIF)\, and Peace and Stabilization Operations Program (PSOPS). We invite audience members to broaden the conversation with examples from other GAC portfolios and initiatives. \nSpeakers: \n\nBushra Khaliq\, Executive Director\, Women in Struggle for Empowerment (WISE)\, Pakistan\nTBC speaker from East Africa\nRoxanne Murrell\, Program Officer: Women’s Rights\, Oxfam Canada\nBill Fairbairn\, Program Manager\, Inter Pares\, Canada\nLeah Odle-Benson\, Deputy Director Impact and Learning\, Stephen Lewis Foundation\, Canada\n\nBackground \nLocal organizations – led by and for their communities—are doing the most effective development work in the world. Yet far too little international development funding makes it to them to support their priorities\, growth\, and sustainability. \nInternational cooperation organizations and staff at Global Affairs Canada are collaborating to identify and change policies\, restrictions\, and processes that impede the department’s ability to meaningfully support locally led development. But even with important changes underway\, significant institutional challenges persist. \nWe must continue to advocate around GAC’s funding practices and policies\, and at the same time\, there is more we can do as the international cooperation sector to improve the ways we work. This conversation is an opportunity to share information\, learn from one another and strategize on how we and GAC can best support local organizations and movements. \nAttend here!

SUMMARY:Reimagining Partnerships: Collaborating with the Private Sector to Achieve the SDGs
DESCRIPTION:Amid a shifting economic and geopolitical landscape\, private sector partnerships could emerge as a key trend for 2025 and beyond. Effective collaborations between the non-profit and private sectors can play a crucial role in advancing global health and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Yet\, current private sector metrics tend to focus primarily on the financial contributions rather than social impact. At the same time\, the diversity of the private sector and assumptions often make non-profits hesitant to engage. \nThis webinar will challenge traditional perceptions\, spotlight unique ways the private sector can support NGOs\, and present practical\, innovative examples of how mutually beneficial partnerships can thrive. \nSpeakers: \n\nCaitlin McKay\, Lucky Iron Life\nAdrienne Jack\, Cowater International\nRobin Darcy\, Alinea\nMegan Dover\, Cross Border Impact Ventures\n\nAttend here!
