How to Fund Tech – A New Guide by Ariadne
Ariadne, the network of European funders for social change and human rights, just released their How to Fund Tech Guide.
The guide provides advice on
- understanding an organisation’s data and technical maturity
- what to keep in mind when reviewing applications for a technology-heavy project
- how the dynamics of technology and data can affect decisions and grants
- starting initial conversations with your foundation about the intersection of technology and your issue areas
- crafting your own approach, if you want to chart a path for your foundation in its overall approach to technology
Ariadne is offering this resource « as a jumping-off point, a place to begin discussions within your foundation and ask questions to help you navigate a technology-heavy grant, even if you feel you lack the expertise to evaluate the project completely. It is our hope that this resource will help to build a larger pool of funders who do not identify as tech funders or digital rights experts but feel capable to speak to some of the ways technology is impacting their grantees and long-term vision for society. »
