CONFERENCES: SAN FRANCISCO & NEW YORK CITY

IHRFG conferences provide funders an opportunity to explore critical issues in human rights; promote exchange and collaboration among grantmakers; deepen knowledge of strategic human rights grantmaking practices; and meet fun and interesting colleagues. Plenary themes and session topics reflect the thinking and challenges with which human rights funders are currently grappling. IHRFG conferences take place each year in January in San Francisco and in July in New York City. 

IHRFG events are open to grantmakers only.
