OPENING KEYNOTE
Connecting on Equity: An honest conversation on what’s standing in the way of progress
As we aim to uplift and operationalize equity in the philanthropic sector, we find hesitation and slow movement toward progress. Our opening keynote brings together two dynamic leaders, Vu Le and Amoretta Morris, for a candid exchange that explores that reticence and challenges us to push forward with bold and unrestrained resolve to be more equitable in our grantmaking practices.

MIDWEEK KEYNOTE
Advocating for Psychological Safety and Wellness in the Philanthropic Sector
Building trust and psychological safety are key components to creating a more equitable philanthropic sector. In order for those dynamics to thrive, it is essential to build strong relationships between staff, boards, grantee partners, and other key stakeholders. Join this critical conversation with Aiko Bethea and Megan Reitz to learn more about what psychological safety is and the foundational role it plays in fostering trust, wellness, and relationship-building. Together, they will explain how you can build stronger teams and organizations and lead from your seat to advocate for safety, trust, and wellness.

CLOSING KEYNOTE
Continuing the Conversation: The changing face of philanthropy
In a dynamic closer, four women of color CEOs continue the discussion that started at PEAK2021 on the changing face of philanthropy. PEAK’s Satonya Fair will lead a conversation with Susan Taylor Batten, Carmen Rojas, and Sherece West-Scantlebury to discuss their own emergent learning journeys over the past year, share experiences that have equipped them for the challenges now facing the sector, and connect on how their thinking has evolved regarding ways to narrow power gaps and deepen partnerships with their staff, collaborators, and communities.

NOLA TIME
Since we couldn't experience the great city of new Orleans in person, we pledged to infuse the PEAK2022 experience with a NOLA vibe. Throughout the week, we're creating spaces for a special series of short, inspiring presentations that highlight NOLA nonprofits and culture through music, dance, film, and spoken-word performances.
