Philea launches Evolving Practices of International Cooperation storyboard

Philea, via the Funders International Network for Development, has launched the Evolving Practices of International Cooperation storyboard, sharing key takeaways and learnings from a two-year peer-learning journey exploring new forms of international cooperation conducted by the network.

Developed in collaboration with New Silk Roads, the storyboard serves as an interactive online repository of the learnings from the online and in-person sessions that aimed to reimagine philanthropic models and explore locally-rooted approaches to international cooperation tailored to the challenges of the 21st century. 

Divided into nine sections, covering topics such as local partnerships, locally led development, youth-led initiatives, innovative funding mechanisms, advocacy for bottom-up philanthropy and locally-led monitoring, evaluation and learning practices, each of the sections include key takeaways from each module, participant carousels to spotlight voices from the network, and challenges to spark reflection and critical thinking. 

The storyboard invites users to engage with the evolving landscape of international cooperation and rethink the future of philanthropy in the sector. 

Check out the storyboard.
