We're kicking off Day 3 of the #TPWGlobalSummit shortly! Today we're asking “Now what?” regarding our learnings this week and hearing directly from TPW members on how they’re working to drive significant change. Highlights from Day 1 and Day 2 that we're building on:

We've wrapped up Day 2 of the #TPWGlobalSummit, during which we dove into the hard questions on whether trust-based approaches are compatible with strategic philanthropy, and then explored practical trust-based tools & approaches with 15 incredible speakers across 6 workshops.

"When philanthropists give well, you see organizations flourish," says @DanBerelowitz, CEO & Founder of @SpringImpact. But he also thinks they can underestimate the power they have to effect change. More from Dan in the week's featured partner story here: https://t.co/lZYE9oiR8m

Start NOW thinking radically about how we will use volunteers in hospitals. Most trusts are still looking at them as marginal support .In three weeks time they will have to be core team workers . Think at least a 1000 per Trust allowing all staff to do clinical work .

Establishing social impact on #impinv is not impossible & and should be attempted by everyone. We used a few frameworks for this in our recent work, including @impmgmt @ConnectSDGs & our own IRC > https://t.co/84mHOOosCJ #investingforimpact

For those who attended TPW's Immersion Journey to Jordan (& those who didn't!), it's fascinating to continue the discussion on refugee interventions with @SashaChanoff @RefugePt on co-creating a self-reliance index as a common measurable outcome for impact. #strategicphilanthropy

Inspired to hear @d_simas speaking about the need to 'restitch the civic fabric' to bring communities together and increase trust and the work that the @ObamaFoundation is doing to inspire, empower & connect the next generation of leaders'. Thank you.
