Reducing Waste and Mismanagement: Implementing Agency Watchdogs’ Recommendations Could Save Taxpayer Billions
For this picture I tried to portray value by getting the whole landscape into the picture, but it really focuses on the trees.
Value(s) for Money? Philanthropy as a Catalyst for Social Change (March 6-9, 2014)
Increasing social and environmental challenges, writ globally, are raising the stakes for philanthropy to find "solutions". The deeply complex nature of these challenges, however, defies easy fixes and requires more sophisticated and diffuse systems level approaches. Is the philanthropic sector ready, or capable of meeting critical systemic challenges? Probably not, as seen through the lens of Michael Edwards in a recent think piece entitled 'Beauty and the Beast: Can Money Ever Foster Social Transformation?'.
Innovative funding mechanisms that support social change - like crowd-funding, social impact bonds, payments for eco-system services and prize-backed challenges - have diversified the funding landscape and brought in new resources. The system, however, is arguably out of balance with too much focus placed on revenue-generation, and directing financial resources, through the market. At the same time, less funding is available for the deeper, less tangible drivers of social change - change that is driven by the beneficiaries themselves and is inherently more democratic. Money, while a seemingly essential tool in change processes, can be a "curse", reinforcing or exacerbating the very circumstances and power imbalances at the heart of systemic social challenges.
The objective of this program, in partnership with Hivos, is to shape a new narrative on funding for deep social change that can influence current and future funding trends and global policies.
More shots of the completed Vaerdilemma board-game; considering adding them to a Facebook page ... so this is mostly for testing
1) The element of art is value. It is reflected in this photo by the buildings and ground all being shades of red. Most things in this photo include the colour red, making everything in this photo match together.
2) The most visually striking part about this photo is the John Fluevog building. The building is the largest part of the photo which makes it the focal point. Not only that but everything on the building is red except for the green door which makes it stand out.
