No more excuses, resource racial equity accountability! It is not enough to simply acknowledge and talk about the need for racial justice - we need concrete actions and funding to make it a reality. The Racial Equity Index is a global accountability tool that measures racial equity (and inequity) within and across the Global Development sector. Founded and led by a group of BIPOC people working to hold the global development sector accountable in dismantling all forms of systemic racism. As the only global racial equity index of its kind, the Racial Equity Index is a vital acccountability mechanism that is needed across the sector. Funders, resource mobilizers, and beyond, inviting you to support by: 📌Resourcing: funding is needed to do this work. All of the REI members are volunteers.
