@MicheMReddy point on staying in unfamiliarity and uncomfortable spaces longer when interrogated is so powerful. Learning to stay resilient in unfamiliar spaces so you open, adapt and learn a new way of navigating.

"Stay in the unfamiliarity, in the uncomfortableness a little bit longer. Listening to our partners can serve really well in building trust and credibility over time." @MicheMReddy from @fijiwomensfund

Fund Manager @MicheMReddy joined over 200 global #feminist leaders on IWDA & Gender at Work webinar to discuss ways to create cultures of care & resilience in organisations, mobilise resources & funding to ensure organisational leadership lives up to feminist values.

We have learned that we need to harness local giving, listen to our grantees - build their trust over time, the power to negotiate as collectives for shared values especially having conversations with our funders - shifting narratives and critical gaps in funding - @MicheMReddy
