Ep3: Uprising of Women in Philanthropy — Meet more authors of this international social justice playbook

Co-authored by 10 international powerhouses — Ndana Bofu-Tawamba, Ruby Bright, Stephanie Clohesy, Musimbi Kanyoro, Helen LaKelly Hunt, Ana Oliveira, Laura Risimini, Jane Sloane, and Jessica Tomlin — this podcast show features these leaders and their insights from the 2024 book The Uprising of Women in Philanthropy.

What is certain to be a bestseller, the 2024 tome tells the inspiring, never-before-told story of the Global Women’s Funding Movement, considered the women’s movement’s greatest secret and how it enabled women from all walks of life to harness the power of money to free themselves from oppression.

An important read for everyone interested in the long-practiced Feminist Funding Principles imparted by the authors, the book is a recipe for the feminist alchemy needed to transform society for the betterment of all.

Brimming with feminist epiphanies, this social justice playbook is an urgent call for women’s collective leadership to guide humanity through the gravest of challenges, overcoming patriarchy’s multi-millennium reign through the uprising of women leaders and philanthropists. Founded during the second-wave women’s movement of the early 1970s, small groups of women worldwide, independent of each other, had the same epiphany: it will take a movement of women to raise the money needed to fund women’s freedom.

Since then, the Global Women’s Funding Movement has grown into a global network of radically generous, risk-taking philanthropists who collectively wield financial might to win seismic gender equality victories. The authors document the “Women Effect” that results from gender equality and women’s collective leadership, including improved public health and reproductive justice, expanded public education, more robust democracies, resilient economies, climate recovery, and enduring peace.
