The #ShiftThePowerSummit was held in Bogota from 5-7 December 2023. 700 participants from 86 countries came together to reflect on new ways to support communities and local organisations and to strengthen their relationships through face-to-face meetings. We were there, of course, represented by Tamás Scsaurszki and Gyuri Hámori, because support organisations like ours are important members of this growing community. We met with Karolina and Felipe (who is also the head of TerritoriA), who do similar work to RWF in Colombia: promoting community foundations and providing funding and professional support to start-up organisations. We congratulate Territoria on the first two Colombian community foundations and look forward to the continuation!#STP2023 #ShiftThePower2023 #ShiftThePowerBogota
