    FROM LOCAL TO GLOBAL In 2010, after a decade focused on its home city of Boston, the Barr Foundation launched a pilot in global grantmaking. Over the next three years, guided by a vision for a vibrant, just, and sustainable world with hopeful futures for children, the foundation engaged with over 20 organizations striving to improve the lives of children and families living in poverty in East Africa, India, and Haiti.

In 2010, after a decade focused on our home city of Boston, we set out to learn whether a small Boston- based team could find meaningful ways to engage with efforts to improve the lives of children and families in the Global South. We began with many questions. Over three years, we have answered some of them. Yet in this work we have found there are always questions beyond questions. The one thing we know for certain is that our learning has only begun.

  • Du Ba-Ta-Clan À Favart, Les Itinéraires Du Baryton Lucien Fugère (1871-1935)
    Les colloques de l’Opéra Comique La notion d’emploi dans l’art lyrique français. février 2013 sous la direction de Patrick TAÏEB et Agnès TERRIER Du Ba-ta-clan à Favart, les itinéraires du baryton Lucien Fugère (1871-1935) Sabine TEULON LARDIC Le 9 septembre 1927, à près de quatre-vingts ans, Fugère comptait exactement cinquante années d’Opéra-Comique. Cinquante ans de théâtre ! Quatre- vingt-dix-huit rôles ! […] cette carrière unique allant de Ba-Ta-Clan à la salle Favart à cheval sur deux siècles1. Quand on entend chanter Lucien Fugère, on se demande : mais alors, puisqu’on peut chanter comme cela, avec tant de goût, tant de tact, puisqu’on peut ne pas crier, puisqu’on peut, sans effort apparent, charmer toute une salle, puisqu’on peut mettre d’accord toutes les catégories de public, depuis la plus raffinée jusqu’à l’autre, pourquoi tant de chanteurs continuent-ils à chanter si mal2 ? Une des composantes essentielles du spectacle vivant demeure le faire-valoir des interprètes. Sous la IIIe République, à la salle Favart ou au Théâtre-Lyrique, types et emplois s’enracinent encore dans des traditions issues de la Comédie-Italienne et de l’opéra-comique des Lumières. Créant une connivence entre scène et public, le type est un « mode d’incarnation du personnage à l’aide de caractéristiques psychiques et sociales, parfois physiques, fixes et permanentes tout au long de l’action dramatique, précises […] irrémédiablement repérables par le spectateur3. » Grâce à la législation des théâtres lyriques parisiens, cloisonnés par genre, la pérennité de ces types génère la notion d’emploi, « ensemble de rôles d’une même 1 Raoul DUHAMEL, Lucien Fugère, chanteur scénique français, Paris : Bernard Grasset, 1929, p.

  • Scaling Pathways- Financing for Scaled Impact
    Scaling Catherine Clark, Kimberly Langsam, Ellen Martin, and Erin Worsham Pathways MARCH 2018 Insights from the field on unlocking impact at scale FINANCING FOR SCALED IMPACT Innovation Investment Alliance, Skoll Foundation, and CASE at Duke ABOUT THE SCALING PATHWAYS SERIES Googling “social enterprise” calls up over 20 million links. Indeed, there are hundreds of thousands of new ideas for mission-driven ventures emerging around the world. And there are some notable social enterprise organizations who have started to solve social and environmental problems at scale. What can we learn from the experiences of these organizations? Their hard-won lessons can benefit other social enterprises, funders, and the surrounding ecosystem. Social enterprises often work on problems that are deeply entrenched, depend on cross-sector collaboration, and require multiple pathways to scale their impact and create systems-level change. The road to scaled impact is a nonlinear, complicated journey. Along the way, the organizations have to overcome many challenges and roadblocks, including the following: Financing for Scale: Determining Government Partnerships: which financing strategies best support Effectively cultivating and managing their plan for impact at scale. partnerships with government and other actors in order to increase impact. Pathways to Scale: Data: Understanding Assessing which of the many how to best use data to pathways to scale will most drive performance, impact efficiently and effectively drive management, and decision- towards their desired end game making as they scale. Talent: Defining the different talent strategies needed to identify, train, and retain the human capital needed for scale. The Scaling Pathways Theme Studies series dives into each of these topics in-depth, bringing to light lessons learned by successful social enterprises who have navigated these challenges on the road to scaled impact.

  • Urban Space and Bourgeois Identity in Early Nineteenth-Century Paris*
    Telling “Spatial Stories”: Urban Space and Bourgeois Identity in Early Nineteenth-Century Paris* Victoria E. Thompson Arizona State University Writing about Paris in 1835, the Englishwoman Fanny Trollope lamented: “You must remember . before the last revolution [of 1830],—how very agreeable a part of the spectacle at the Louvre and in the Tuileries garden was constituted by the people....Butnow,till the fresh dirt . of the Three Days’ labour be worn off, dingy jackets, uncomely casquettes . must all be toler- ated; and in this toleration appears to consist at present the principal external proof of the increased liberty of the Parisian mob.”1 Mrs. Trollope’s comment reveals her anxiety concerning the changes wrought in the people by the July Revolution, which ousted Charles X and replaced him with Louis-Philippe during three days of public protest and street fighting. In expressing this anxiety within a specifically urban context, linking the transformation of the popular classes to the question of urban mobility, Mrs. Trollope was also crafting a “spatial story.” French theorist Michel de Certeau used the term “spatial stories” to emphasize the interdependency of textual narratives and spatial practices.2 According to de Certeau, as individ- uals move through urban space, they craft personal itineraries that they infuse with meaning.3 This meaning can be expressed to others through writing. Al- though they are highly personal, he believes that these itineraries, which he * I am extremely grateful to those who have read and commented on any of the many versions of this article.
