2023 Learning Exchanges Summary
In late 2022, Connecting Communities in the Americas offered the first round of microgrants for five Learning Exchange projects, with the hope that facilitating travel would open possibilities for paired organizations to build deeper relationships and strengthen their own work locally through shared learning.
We were able to award $20,000 U.S. dollars among five projects, which were carried out in the first half of 2023. Below are reports from the five foundations who were awarded microgrants.
