The is Embracing Complexity: Toward a Shared Understanding of Funding Systems Change, is the first-ever global effort to bring together the voices of those seeking to fund systems change with those who are delivering it on the ground.

  2. support evolving paths to systems change,
  3. work in true partnership with systems change leaders,
