This session is PEAK Grantmaking’s exclusive training workshop, designed for professionals who are new to their role in grants management. This includes professionals with backgrounds in accounting, technology systems, program management, and other areas. Grants management is often the department where program, finance, communications, application, approval, and administrative functions overlap. Grants managers perform a diverse set of tasks and maintain a wide range of professional relationships to ensure high-quality grants administration across programs. In this workshop, you’ll build a basic understanding of the role of the grants manager, the grantmaking process, and the philanthropic context in which grantmaking takes place.

While many organizations are applying an equity lens to their work, or have explicitly made equity a part of the mission, few have considered how the grant evaluation process can advance, or upend, the pursuit of equity. Who asks the questions? Who owns and interprets the data? Who benefits from findings and recommendations? Advance your knowledge of equity in evaluation practice in this pre-conference workshop, where you’ll be introduced to Equitable Evaluation (EE), an emerging evaluative paradigm grounded in equity. You’ll also discover how common approaches to evaluation can undermine equity, and pick up resources to spur change at your organization.
