The sheer amount of online material can be overwhelming when conducting animal advocacy research projects.

Midlevel donors, who give $1,000 to $10,000 annually, are extremely loyal. While they're unlikely to move into the ranks of major donors, they are good prospects to increase their giving within that range and help organizations through lean times, according to a new report. The report surveyed 5,900 midlevel donors across 36 organizations, sussing out their key traits and what motivates them. The research was conducted by Sea Change Strategies, a fundraising consulting firm, in partnership with Edge Research. #fundraising #philanthropy #nonprofits https://bit.ly/48YPvU2

We're excited to announce another important milestone on the road to decoding animal communication. Co-authored by ESP's Masato Hagiwara Marius Miron and Jen Yu-Liu, ISPA (Inter-Species Phonetic Alphabet) is an AI-based, precise, concise, and interpretable system designed to transcribe animal sounds into text. "The use of text transcription opens up a myriad of possibilities in bioacoustics, including, but not limited to, detection, multimodal processing, audio captioning, and even generation." https://lnkd.in/geNyXqyf https://lnkd.in/gUNujaZn"

"Now more than ever, we need the leadership, vision, and brilliance of our nonprofit partners. A more equitable, just approach to accountability is fundamental to supporting them. When funders relinquish control and take responsibility for how we show up, we can cultivate relationships that unleash bold solutions." -Lorrie Fair Allen, Ashlee George, Charlize Theron | Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project For the future of #philanthropy to truly be trust-based we must signal to #nonprofits that accountability goes both ways and must be rooted in mutuality, relationships, and power analysis.
