足球竞彩app排名 the Inclusive and Sustainable Economic Recovery Ford Initiative      

This Ford initiative is managed by a cross-programmatic team of grant-making staff from across the Ford Foundation. The purpose of these types of initiatives is to amplify the foundation’s impact by funding areas of intersection between approved strategies that advance outcomes or approaches that will benefit more than one strategy or region, have the potential to be real force-multipliers, and cannot be adequately funded by any one program/office. This particular initiative is a one-time funding initiative in response to the challenges and opportunities resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The Southern Centre for Inequality Studies provides secretarial and research support.
