The GGFF Commitments to Equity and Inclusion
At The GGFF, our core values of transformation, integrity, diversity, excellence, and equality demand accelerated action to end racial injustice everywhere, and we know that we must start with ourselves.
Our team:
The GGFF has a diverse team worldwide. Alone on our Board of Directors, we have leaders from various countries in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe and North America.
- 95% of our team are from countries we serve around the world. The GGFF operates in more than 5 countries in four geographic regions with a potential to reach millions of people.
- The GGFF team consists of people who identify as: Black, Indigenous, or People of Color, White, Caucasian, Asians.
We know that leadership is more than just representation, but we are deeply committed to improving, and we are setting aspirational goals to create this change.
Board commitments:
- We also are committed to a Board that is gender balanced. At the moment most of The GGFF leadership identifies as women. However, we will make every effort to include qualified leaders of every gender.
Leadership commitments:
- We will maintain leadership of at least 50% women at the Director level and above.
We will continue to challenge and push to create a better GGFF. We look forward to working together to ensure diversity, equity, and inclusion, and to using our voices as allies and advocates in this essential fight. We look forward to continuing to listen and learn and add to our commitments to achieve a stronger organization, more powerfully contributing to social justice in the world.
