Bond

Who we are

Bond is the UK network for organisations working in international development. We unite and support a diverse network of over 400 civil society organisations to help eradicate global poverty, inequality and injustice. We strengthen and champion the sector to make international development more efficient and effective. We work to influence governments and policy-makers, develop the skills of people in the sector, share expertise, and build organisational capacity and partnerships. 

Our culture and values

Collaborative: We bring our network and partners together to share knowledge and experience to create sustainable change.

Influential: We shape development and humanitarian policies and perspectives based on insight and evidence from our members, their partners and the wider sector.

Open: We act with honesty and integrity and work to hold ourselves accountable.

Dynamic: We embrace new challenges with energy and commitment, adapting our approach to achieve quality and impact.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Bond values diversity and works to advance equity and inclusion. All staff have a responsibility to ensure that they are being open, accepting and respectful to all that they come into contact with within their work at Bond, regardless their protected characteristics. Acting in accordance with the EDI policy, Bond staff must contribute to our inclusive organisational culture ensuring that they are aware of and respond appropriately to micro-aggressions, racism, sexism, LQBTQ+ misconduct and disability equity. Bond Staff must not be bystanders, and must report when they witness any unacceptable behaviour.
