Sponsor a Collection

We publish collections of stories on a specific theme, geography or issue area.

Sponsor a Collection to drive the conversation around participation in the context you care about.

At Proximate we’re interested in asking big questions and tackling timely themes

Our Collections are clusters of articles on a specific theme, often paired with a convening or newsletter

What Partners Are Saying

“Proximate’s work is really exciting. It can be very hard to figure out how to apply participatory models to traditional structures and to really give people power to make decisions.

I feel blessed to be able to support people who are putting these ideas into practice – who bring a critique, but are trying to figure out real solutions.”

- Brian Fernandes-Halloran, Executive Director, Halloran Philanthropies

"Proximate is countering dominant, toxic narratives, and lifting up solutions while others focus on the problems. Their work could not be more critical."

Proximate is an independent media platform covering movements for participatory problem-solving. We look at the news through the lens of money: how it’s given away, how it’s invested, and how it’s distributed by government.
We are a fiscally sponsored project of Movement Strategy Center.
