Exchanging Knowledge & Building Resilience in a Shifting Social Impact Landscape
Panorama Global’s Fiscal Sponsorship facilitated four partner convenings in 2025, enabling important knowledge sharing through conversations on risk management, funder engagement, global operations, and more.
In January, anticipating a year of massive change, Panorama Global convened over 20 sponsored projects to explore two critical topics: the potential impacts of federal policy changes on the nonprofit and legal landscape, and strategies for resilience amidst uncertainty. Headlined by attorney Andrew Schulz of Adler & Colvin and consultant Blair Franklin of Alight Alchemy, the event reinforced the importance of proactive planning and collective care in the current social impact landscape.
In April, the team hosted a webinar featuring Jen Risher of #HalfMyDAF, for partners to learn about donor advised funds (DAFs) and #HalfMyDAF’s matching grant program.
A virtual open forum in June sparked candid conversation, fostered peer learning, and strengthened community. Much of the conversation focused on the challenges of working globally—especially around payments, compliance, and security—amid shifting philanthropic and political dynamics. A recurring theme: how to stay mission-aligned in a politicized climate.
On the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly’s Climate Week in New York in September, Panorama Global hosted a private lunch that brought together funders, grantees, and sponsored partners from all over the world for a valuable in-person connection.
