As International Funders and Donor Countries, including the U.S. are stepping away from global cooperation, dynamic community-led Global South organizations are showing us the way to inclusive and effective community development and resource mobilization. FEM in Colombia has been working with Afro-Colombian and Indigenous communities for over a decade to reclaim their lands, pursue their dreams and build their communities. Join us to learn more about this model community-driven organization and its successful funding diversification model. This is an in-depth conversation with Ana Maria Gonzalez, FEM's Co-Founder. Translation in Spanish and French will be available.
