What's at stake is getting financial capital to do a better job at improving our world. We are having an active dialogue, informed by evidence and focused on solution design. 

The panelists are drawn from the Ford Foundation, specialist impact investing firms, and advocates for racial justice.  

Our discussion promises to be informative and lively. The intention is to consolidate the recommendations and discussions, build community around this issue,  and design a set of implementable interventions.  

Hope you can join us.
