NCVO (The National Council for Voluntary Organisations) created ethical charity principles for the non-profit sector in 2019 and in 2022 NCVO’s consultancy team launched five anti-oppressive principles as a pro-active and deliberate strategy for embedding EDI across all their work. This was a response to the revelations of high-profile ethical failings in the charity sector on areas such as fundraising, safeguarding and senior staff pay, which at the time provided a picture of discriminatory practice that seemed to be rife among organisations that are supposed to be engaged in making the world a better place.

Our work as NCVO shapes the future of organisations and individuals we work with, so equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) are highly relevant, while the journey towards EDI usually involves a long and winding road. Join this lunchtime talk to learn and explore how do we ensure that EDI can be considered at each step of any project or initiative.
