Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

We are working towards playing a full role in decolonising development, reflecting on what this means and how we should be rethinking our practises to truly make an impact for children across the world. We aim to create an inclusive work environment where staff can be themselves. It allows us to be innovative in our thinking and in the way we work to support and empower the most vulnerable to have a voice and build for the future. Our D&I strategy looks to achieve a more equitable and inclusive workplace for everyone, and to support the work to empower communities and children.
