From PEAK Grantmaking: The idea of \u201crisk\u201d in grantmaking is pervasive. A critical factor in reaching awards decisions, it\u2019s also a stand-out feature of the traditional philanthropic approach that has come under intense fire for its long-standing exclusion of smaller, grassroots organizations \u2013 the kind that are often led by BIPOC and devoted to the neighborhood-level work that is so badly needed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Part of the problem is the slipperiness of the term, as it\u2019s used in philanthropy: Without a functional and universally-accepted definition, \u201crisk\u201d provides cover for any number of implicit biases \u2013 a way to scuttle the development and practice of trust, and short-circuit efforts to build equity.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Recently, we asked four members of the PEAK community to delve into the ways \u201crisk\u201d has been misused, its potential for rehabilitation, and the encouraging ways that we are already reframing it in the wake of 2020\u2019s multiple overlapping crises. Following are highlights of the wide-ranging discussion, with a number of insightful ways to reimagine \u201crisk\u201d for the betterment of the sector and its grantee partners.\u00a0<\/p>\n
