The #ShiftThePower initiative is already generating a lot of buzz. Collective action is required in order to establish an understanding of ideas, analysis, and strategy that might lead to speedier adoption and outcomes. In retrospect, what was previously uncommon is becoming more familiar and diverse stakeholders must now deliberate on issues at the same table.

This forum aims to unpack the concept of #ShiftThePower by demystifying it and simplifying it while making it adaptable to the Kenyan context. Thus, we seek to empower philanthropists, CSOs, and practitioners to push for actionable practice which will expedite our achievement of shifts in resource flow, locally-led giving, and cultivate new paradigms for community philanthropy and development.
