The Equity Index’s activities support UK-based international development and social change organisations (including non-governmental organisations, companies, donors/foundations, research organisations and media actors) to develop more equitable organisational policies, practices and partnerships. The Equity Index was founded in May 2020. From July 2020 to June 2021, we delivered a pilot project funded by the Joffe Charitable Trust to provide proof of concept of the index. We have not been successful in raising additional grant funding since the pilot, and therefore have not been able to cover core costs related to further developing and running the index. Over the period 1 November 2024 to 31 October 2025 (including up until the present), The Equity Index and other similar initiatives have continued to face a challenging funding environment. Foreign aid has experienced unprecedented cuts, which have had a widespread effect, particularly on infrastructure organisations such as ours. However, there is still value for the role of The Equity Index in continuing to advocate for more equitable development practices through our website. As ever, we continue to make publicly available all resources that we produce on The Equity Index website (https://theequityindex.org). This means they are available to any individual or organisation that wishes to use them in their own work. The Equity Index did not engage in any consultancy projects over this time. However, we are currently delivering a project for the Diocese of London focused on creating an equity and racial justice assessment framework. This will be reflected in our next report. We have also launched a new podcast on Spotify called Take or Give, co-hosted by our two founders, which has focused on spreading messages related to equity across the sector.
