** Weigh in Here on Participatory Grantmaking
------------------------------------------------------------
NPQ often hosts contentious conversations about points of practice. In this case these three articles were published in direct response to one another over the past month. The article by Cynthia Gibson essentially asserted that feedback and input were insufficient mechanism by themselves to answer the call for more participation from communities in philanthropy. She was answered by Melinda Tuan of the Fund for Shared Insight and that elicited a response from a number of foundations that are involved in the on the ground practice of participatory grantmaking.
This dialogue is a good example of NPQ’s hosting of contentious conversations. That hosting is a way to get the various points of view clearly laid out to help move “stuck” practices forward. Please feel free to chime in with your own opinions under Gibson’s article as a comment.
