@lia_tadesse What a tragic loss for Ethiopia and the world. Zemi was an exceptional woman, an inspiring leader and advocate for children on the autism spectrum. She was a light to the world and will be missed.

As the guy who used to oversee that very aid, let me say explicitly: no amount of aid money can prevent this famine. Without massive political pressure on the Saudis, this is just window dressing.

Carol Larson: @PackardFdn “has doubled down on youth.” Moved from “youth are the future” to “youth are the leaders!”

[Mike Klag @MikeKlag]

Carol Larson @PackardFdn CEO lists 3 trends in #SHRH philanthropy: increased collaboration among private donors, impact investing (low interest loans, equity) and the importance of on the ground advocacy

[Mike Klag @MikeKlag]

Amanda Glassman @CGDev Family planning too often left out of public subsidies when universal health care instituted, in US and around the world. Could not be more true!

[Mike Klag @MikeKlag]

Amanda Glassman CEO @CGDev has 3 important criteria for global #SHRH funding: sufficient, stable, sustainable. All are challenged. @PackardFdn @JohnsHopkinsSPH @GatesJHU #ICFP2018

[Mike Klag @MikeKlag]

@PackardFdn Carol Larson and others advise: take risks, find connections between issues (e.g. family planning and education), and reach out to new philanthropy and new groups to bring new $ and new voices to field.
