What does it look like when typical grantmaking models rooted in scarcity and competition are replaced with a non-competitive grantmaking model rooted in feminist values of collaboration, community, and solidarity?
A powerful community of 23 feminist funds working across five continents are the newest recipients of flexible funding from the Equality Fund. The grants are the first from Equality Fund's Activate grantmaking stream, designed to support feminist funds fuelling grassroots change in the Global South and beyond. The Activate report tells the journey of reimagining traditional competitive grantmaking models.
Rather than fostering a competitive process, Activate seeks to build a non-competitive grantmaking model that is founded upon feminist values: collaboration, solidarity, and community. This model is called Step Up / Step Back.
For this project, I did the graphic design for the Activate report - a 26-page document with English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese translations. The graphic design is consistent with Equality Fund’s branding, and aims to embody strength in feminism through bold design. Read the full report here.
