Aims and activities
Thirty Percy aimed to work with other trusts and foundations on a dynamic, 10-day sprint focused on how we can disrupt our own ways of working, continue to deepen our practice of acting responsively and face some of the bigger structural challenges needed. Our goal was to create a better funding and resource system to support racial justice initiatives to thrive. Doing this by prioritising and identifying the practical, first steps in acting towards these bigger changes.
The sprint approach:
- Adopt fast-paced approaches: experiment and deepen a more responsive way of working that prioritises tangible progress
- Learn from past examples: pool insights from previous examples where funder actions challenging structural change have been effective
- Identify, prioritise and design: practical responses to the biggest structural changes needed
- Evaluate suitability: Encourage participants to assess the applicability of these approaches within their own contexts
- Share learning: Develop action plans for sharing learnings beyond this group and push for real sector-wide change
