SUMMARY:Follow-Up Webinar: Blended and Innovative Finance for NGOs
DESCRIPTION:As traditional grant funding becomes increasingly constrained\, many NGOs are exploring blended and innovative finance as potential pathways to sustainability. At the same time\, there is growing uncertainty about what these models actually involve\, when they are appropriate\, and how mission-driven organisations can engage without compromising their values or capacity. \nThis follow-up webinar builds on our recent session on the 2026 funding outlook and responds directly to participant questions. It offers a practical and honest discussion on blended and innovative finance\, grounded in real organisational experience rather than theory. \nThe session is designed to help NGOs understand where these models fit within the wider funding landscape and how to assess whether they are relevant to their organisation. \nWhat We Will Cover\nDuring this 60-minute session\, we will explore: \n\nWhat blended and innovative finance mean in practical terms for NGOs\nThe different types of capital involved\, including grants\, concessional finance\, and private investment\nWhen blended finance can support programme scale and sustainability\nCommon misconceptions and risks associated with engaging investors\nHow NGOs can assess organisational readiness before pursuing innovative finance\nThe internal systems\, skills\, and governance considerations funders expect\nHow innovative finance can complement\, not replace\, traditional grants\n\nThe discussion will focus on clarity\, decision-making\, and strategic fit rather than promoting one-size-fits-all solutions. \nWho Should Attend\nThis webinar is relevant for: \n\nNGO leaders and senior management\nProgramme and fundraising managers\nStrategy and partnerships teams\nOrganisations exploring diversification beyond grants\nNGOs seeking to better understand donor and investor expectations\n\nNo prior experience with innovative finance is required.
