Feminist Philanthropy: a new era for the philanthropy field?

This paper explores the concept of "Feminist Philanthropy" and questions whether it signals a new era for the broader philanthropy field. It examines the principles, practices, and goals of feminist-informed giving, emphasizing its focus on gender equality, women's rights, and systemic change. The authors discuss how this approach challenges traditional philanthropic models by advocating for more equitable power dynamics, intersectionality, and community-led initiatives. The paper aims to delineate the distinctive features and potential transformative impact of feminist philanthropy.
