Demand for Equity & Justice Infrastructure

Equity Announcements Data Learning

Earlier this year, we embarked on a project to map the current state of funding for equity and justice infrastructure. While some efforts have been made to better evidence the scale and funding of more generic forms of infrastructure support, we still lack understanding about the infrastructure sector specifically for equity and justice organisations. This project will improve our understanding of the current funding position of the sector and the needs they are seeking to address.   

 

In phase one of the project, we conducted a review of the available UK literature on equity & justice infrastructure organisations, both of their needs and the impact their work has. The review revealed a shortage of literature on the subject and highlighted a dearth of perspectives from these organisations with most of the existing research carried out or commissioned by funders. To fill these gaps, we are conducting two parallel surveys – one aimed at equity & justice organisations and the other aimed at infrastructure organisations providing support to equity & justice organisations. 

If we are to achieve the wider ambitions of strong and vibrant organisations led by and for the communities they represent, we need to have a common understanding of the current funding position of the sector and the needs they are seeking to address

We‘re asking members to forward this survey to their grantees and/or other organisations that might be working in the equity and/or justice sector, either as equity & justice organisations or as infrastructure organisations providing support to equity & justice organisations. 

By-and-for-led organisations working on issues relating to equity and justice, please fill out this survey. You can download the easy read survey here.

Infrastructure organisations providing support to equity & justice organisations, please fill out this survey. You can download the easy read survey here.

Responses will inform our research and subsequently inform discussions with funders on the strategic development of funding approaches in this space. If you have any questions or concerns about the project please reach out to our Research & Evidence Manager, Shreya Gautam at shreya.gautam@londonfunders.org.uk.
