For all of you planning to attend AOM, here is a symposium to add to your calendar:
1634: Power, Equity, and Justice in Community Philanthropy – How a Field is Changing, happening Monday, August 12, 3.00 - 4.30 pm, Fairmount Hotel, Embassy Room
We have four papers that will shed light on equity, power, and justice from different angles and utilizing different methods. Panel members are Laurie Paarlberg, Lauren Dula, Yue Ming, Ellie Heng Qu, Jamie Levine Daniel, Megan LePere-Schloop, and Maham Ali, alongside our discussant Julie Langer
Sponsoring divisions are: PNP, DEI, and SIM
More info: This symposium leverages the context of community foundations (CFs), public charities that raise and distribute philanthropic funds in a defined geographic place to meet broad community needs, to examine how community foundations pursue change towards justice philanthropy in light of an environmental context that increasingly politicizes DEI. Specifically, papers in this panel conceptually explore the relationship between power and philanthropy, describe the institutional logics shaping justice philanthropy in community foundations, and empirically examine community foundation practice to advance social equity and justice.
Hope you can join us!
