Because lasting impact isn't brought to communities, it is created with and by them.

The wait is over....It’s time to shift power!

@tunawezaempower.bsky.social is thrilled to be part of the launch of the End FGM Fund at #JusticeForGirls2026 global convening.

We join the world to calls for a shift in how resources reach the grassroots & frontlines movements.

Today we announce that @maryannclements.bsky.social and Fredrick Ouko will be leaving ADD at the end of August.

Over the past 5 years, they have helped transform ADD into a participatory grant maker that shifts power and resources to #DisabilityJustice activists.

Global dev and philanthropy doesn’t see that most movements have been resourcing and funding themselves because they never had access to international money to start with.

Movements are still here in-spite of global dev and philanthropy, not because of it.

#ShiftThePower
When one follows the money (AWID reports, GF for women, #ShiftThePower Too-Southern-To-Be-Funded, GPP reports, etc) it becomes obvious philanthropy & international dev has paid lip service to (feminist, queer, Southern CSO) movements but has not followed that up with adequate funding.

Ironic that a funder call on the “Preservation of Endangered Indigenous Knowledge” also includes ambiguous framing on how the funding entity will also have “rights” over the knowledge 👀.

Bringing this here because it never gets old.

#Philanthropy and Northern orgs still thinking they are the only funders of Southern CSOs while erasing communities as contributors of local resources to Southern CSOs. #ShiftThePower

No one ever claims to hold power within philanthropy. I have met countless people who are well paid, who hold positions of power and/or are backed by endowments. Many of these always refer to another ...

PRESIDENTS' DAY: as we don't currently have a real President, let's make a LOUD statement, unifying our voices (yes, in USA that means $). So a single focus - NOT diversified. I suggest, on 2/17 all join NAACP. If already a member, join a group to directly fund Black political power. ShiftThePower!

Our new girl-centered advocacy brief (w/ the Adolescent Girls Investment Plan + PMNCH) lays out the latest data on girls’ rights/ what governments & donors must fund now.

Justice for girls means school, safety, and real power.
