Overview
This grant will support the Center for Reproductive Rights' efforts to develop and institutionalize diversity, equity, and inclusion practices and values that are sustainable, purposeful, and contextualized for a global employee population. The process will include work with a consultant to undertake a baseline review; develop and roll out a Center-specific unconscious bias training for all leaders and supervisors; and strengthen its internal recruitment capacity to hire a diverse workforce. As a result of this process, the Center aims to have a common internal understanding of what DEI is at the Center; a more inclusive environment; and a more diverse workforce that can better serve and create value for stakeholders globally.

Grants to this Grantee
for general operating support
The Center for Reproductive Rights works to advance and protect laws and policies that ensure women can access reproductive health care, including abortion. Working at the local, national, regional, and global levels, the center conducts high impact litigation, policy reform, and advocacy; cultivates strategic alliances and networks; and develops communications campaigns. Across its work, the center aims to strengthen jurisprudential standards in courts; focus conversations about reproductive rights on women’s dignity, health, and rights; broaden the base of support for reproductive rights; and build the capacity of state and local partners to affect change. (Strategy: U.S. Reproductive Equity)
for support of the Center for Reproductive Rights Africa program
The Center for Reproductive Rights Africa program uses strategic advocacy, capacity and movement building, and high-impact litigation to ensure that sexual and reproductive health and rights are protected and promoted in law and policy and realized by women and girls across the region. During the grant period, the Center for Reproductive Rights Africa program will work with regional partners through the Africa Reproductive Rights Initiative to collectively advocate against shrinking civic space and opposition to progressive laws and policies that advance sexual and reproductive health and rights at the national and regional levels.
