    036: Facing Fear with Trust: A Conversation on Funding & Community Resilience
    2026/08/06
    What happens when the biggest risk isn't funding grassroots organisations, but failing to?

    In this episode, The Social Change Nest's own Ana Steiner is joined by Misbah Malik from Hope Not Hate, Oli Whittington from Our House UK and Veda Harrison from Esmée Fairbairn Foundation to unpack what it really takes to build resilient communities in an age of fear, misinformation, and growing political division.

    Together, they explore why grassroots organisations are carrying more risk than ever, how long-term unrestricted funding can unlock creativity and lasting systems change, and why communities may be far less divided than the headlines suggest. From trust-based philanthropy to the power of local relationships, this conversation challenges what we think we know about risk and offers a hopeful vision for rebuilding stronger communities.

    035: Funding Change: Why Movements Need Flexible and Long-Term Support
    2026/06/24
    Why does traditional philanthropy rely so heavily on rigid, transactional controls, and how is that micro-management stifling real, systemic change?

    Join The Social Change Nest's Kristen Woolf together with Claudia Giampietri from Healthy Food Healthy Planet and Sandra Kushrawi from Famtastisch Foundation as they unpack the urgent shift toward trust-based, flexible funding.

    Together, they explore why complex "wicked" problems, such as transforming our food systems, cannot be solved with short-term project grants or rigid KPIs. Instead, they share how rewriting the traditional philanthropic playbook through relational check-ins, shared risk, and innovative co-design models can shift power directly back to grassroots movements. They also dive into the critical role of infrastructure, discussing how partnering with a fiscal host like The Social Change Nest allows intermediaries and funders to be braver, de-risk radical collaboration, and make movement funding more human.
