Radical Flexibility Fund contributes to a new era of locally-led social change by investing in people and communities - supporting their rights and agency and amplifying their voices - in new ways by combining three elements: ● supporting communities to identify their own priorities and define their own impact; ● resourcing these priorities through a broad range of funding tools (community philanthropy, outcome funds, etc.) that are more flexible, more inclusive and more sustainable than grants; and, ● allocating resources in participatory ways with a focus on innovative technologies. The Fund works with stakeholders and clients to gather information about new financing approaches; uses that information to design and facilitate processes led by grassroots organizations to effectively resource work in their communities; and, generates locally-led knowledge, monitors and disseminates the learning and impact of these new approaches. By gathering together these transformative elements and changemakers from different parts of the funding system we will – eventually – create a new paradigm. Communities will have the authority to make their own choices and determine their own futures through increased ability to generate renewable resources. This will make them safer, more peaceful, more prosperous and healthier. The combination of these elements - and the interconnectivity they catalyze - makes this Fund radical.
