GEOList Summary: Funders & Equity Frameworks

Good afternoon – I would like to ask my grantmaking peers willing to share – what did your path to building in equity framework or processes look like as a Grantmaker? We are working alongside an area partner funder to identify our strategies and goals for this work and I was curious if anyone else was willing to share their experiences. We have recently started diving into the Equitable Evaluation Framework (EEF) provided by GEO and their partners. Over the past few years, our organization has increased focus on diversity internally but as we prepare to implement new frameworks or philosophies in our programs, we have a lot of questions. We do not want to set up a process that does not sustain or embed equity across our work. We don’t want to check boxes, so to speak. Have you successfully implemented the EEF or are you working towards it? I’d love to chat with you! Heather
