You wouldn’t invite arm dealers to lead peace talks. So why let oil executives lead climate talks? Burning #fossilfuels is the single largest cause of the #climatecrisis, & the single biggest threat to solving it. #COP28 https://t.co/FKc7LPXYw2

Introducing the +1 WASH fund - localizing decision making for funding - https://t.co/UnnO1IfM4r

[Shockwave Foundation @ShockwaveFound]

One of our challenges is to make funding more effective by supporting the best players, not the flashiest people who can give great TED talks and who have connections to the funding ecosystem.

We're working to fix that!

We’ve published a set of living documents describing our strategy, grant priorities, funding criteria, and decision-making processes. This is “open source”– please review it, discuss it, and use it to inspire your own work. We invite feedback. https://t.co/2jDgVsaypQ 2/2

Funders hinder their own effectiveness when acting as opaque institutions. At Shockwave, we’ve made a commitment to transparency and accountability.
We want our partners to know what we value and how we think about their work. 1/2
