👇Barry Knight in Alliance magazine, drawing on Naila Taji Farouky’s ‘Navigating Crisis Through Philanthropy’ and noting: ‘Rather than living in a fantasy bubble, where we believe we are the moral arbiters of what should happen in the world, we must face the shadows that are within us and recognise that we are all complicit in some of the problems that are actually occurring.’

Where are these great humanitarian philanthropic institutions? https://lnkd.in/gFf-24Aq
