INVITATION: Civil Society Report Back - Unpacking the Presidential Summit and the Afremath #ournsp shorturl.at/kJLX4

Communities are not waiting for change—they are driving it. Today's #NotFitForPurpose discussions highlighted how grassroots organisations, activists and community leaders are strengthening the response to GBVF through advocacy, collaboration and local action.

How do we pick up the baton? Today's #NotFitForPurpose discussions explored what it will take to sustain the GBVF movement beyond 2030—from investing in young people and women's leadership to strengthening grassroots organisations, accountability and community-led action.

The focus of Session 2 of #NotFitForPurpose: Funding the Work, Sustaining the Movement. Through panel discussions and presentations, participants are unpacking what it will take to resource meaningful GBVF action through 2030 and beyond.

Funding must do more than finance projects - it must build power. Sustainable investment means strengthening organisations, leadership, knowledge and regional movements so that communities are better equipped long after a grant ends.#notfitforpurpose
