We certainly can't compel people to work with us, but the major funder of health research in RoI also co-funds our CRF (and others) and grant application materials are worded to encourage involvement with the relevant infrastructure they fund when appropriate.

More good work as we’ve come to expect!

Fun fact: As a funder of field research in the study, Fessenger cited the Ford Foundation, an organization that acted as a conduit for CIA funds, according to the CIA.

It was indeed quite the era.

Mind you, that’s a variant of what David Sweeney used to imply. Less research, but all of it open…which around the time of Finch etc was quite a common funder view.

The main skepticism is she has little governing or managing experience and doesn’t have a funder base.

You may now refer to him as "Nazi funder Phil Knight"
Phil Knight is almost single handedly funding the OR GOP, one of the more extreme state GOPs in the country. Keep that in mind next time you’re in the market for sportswear or sneakers. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

It is the single largest donation Knight has made to an Oregon candidate or political action committee.

Ohhh. I misread as $3k somewhere.

But yes—the adjudicated insurrectionist and funder of a seditious conspiracy (and a largely foreign orchestrated coup) definitely knew exactly what was doing that day.

Independent thinking, public intellectuals, not affiliated with any private institution or funder. Not aligned with the wishes of another Country.

I never realised that Bill Gates was a major funder of the modern day temperence movement. Go figure.

Watching the brilliant BBC Drama Prisoner 951?

This is a public service announcement to remind all viewers that the Iranian regime that kidnapped and tortured Nazanin is the same regime that is the sole funder of both Hamas and Hezbollah.

A series of Grok queries recently led to results claiming that Musk is a better athlete than basketball superstar LeBron James and that he is smarter than the iconic Leonardo da Vinci.
Musk continues to be a major Republican influencer & funder in spite of his pro-Nazi efforts.

It always amuses me with these things to wonder whether the identity is being concealed because Gibb would be embarrassed by association with the funder, or the funder would be embarrassed by association with Gibb.
Robbie Gibb says he was approached to join the Jewish Chronicle board by "an elderly Jewish person...funder...um philanthropist". Hasn't said his name yet. But it is a big issue as lots of progressive writers quit shortly after, saying it had become an ideological tool.

“Independent journalists usually don’t have teams who can evaluate potential funders. So what can you do to ensure a funder is ethically aligned?” @lizkellynelson.com of Project C & Mollie Muchna of @trustingnews.bsky.social share tips for assessing funders + funder disclosures for creators.

It's quite absurd that there is no funding to keep ParlGov updated: this is essential data infrastructure for political science! No funder is interested in keeping the data backbone of comparative politics alive, while millions get spent on all kinds of BS. Ridiculous!
Just learned that Holger Döring retired from ParlGov in October.

If I'm not misreading his message, then this great resource will not be updated anymore 🖤

Reform's main funder, Tice resides in Dubai. With his partner+children.

Strange destination for a couple who I think of as amongst the most racist reptiles.

But then no Brexit pain or falling standards over there.

Their policy, Labour see fit to adopt?
