Core project understanding
Purpose & Vision
Transforming organizations requires attention to values, structures, relationships, and whose knowledge shapes decisions.
Gender inequity does not exist in isolation
This project is guided by a feminist, intersectional framework that recognizes that gender inequity is shaped by race, culture, language, immigration status and lived experience, among many other factors. Moving beyond surface-level inclusion toward structural, lasting change -- of a non-profit sector where leadership, decision-making and organizational culture make room for all voices, especially those who have been historically excluded.
