Aims and activities
We’re a collective on a mission to drive inclusive social investment in the UK, through the convening of sector-wide groups, commissioning research, and knowledge sharing.
Our Steering Group meets 4 to 6 times a year and aims to provide leadership to the social investment sector on issues of diversity and inclusion, to enable:
- Social investors to make good and better investment decisions
- Sector employers to offer an inclusive workplace and better represent the people we fund, and
- An increase in the level of investment going to a greater diversity of groups.
How to get involved
Sign our Manifesto. Our Manifesto offers a way for organisations to work transparently and collaboratively on shared goals and aims, to be held accountable and to access support with addressing equity, equality, diversity and inclusion. Although primarily aimed at the social investment sector, we are open to working with grant-making and other funding organisations who may find our Manifesto useful in achieving their diversity and inclusion goals.
Join our Diversity Champions network. Our network is open to all individuals working towards equity, diversity and inclusion in the social investment sector. This peer-support network has been instrumental in sharing resources, ideas and opportunities for collaboration on the journey for diversity and inclusion. Our Diversity Champions also play a crucial role in collecting and sharing data relating to diversity and shaping our work as the Diversity Forum.
If you would like to find out more about getting involved in the Diversity Forum, please get in touch.
