Request for Proposal: AFP in Canada: IDEAA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Access and Anti-Racism) Audit and Sector Benchmarking Research
Please find attached a Request for Proposal (RFP) to conduct an IDEAA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Access, and Anti-Racism) Audit for AFP in Canada. The AFP Foundation for Philanthropy – Canada, the AFP Canada Board of Directors and AFP Global are committed to understanding the experiences of AFP members and fundraisers across Canada who are systemically oppressed, determining actionable steps to correct this oppression and then develop a roadmap for a path forward.
The primary objective of Phase I is to review the current state of AFP in Canada—including its structure, policies, processes, and culture—through an IDEAA lens, and re-evaluate our systems and structure to create a more inclusive environment and sense of belonging. This phase aims to identify areas for improvement and redefine future directions to increase membership, engagement, and remove barriers for existing and the next generation of leaders.
Please distribute this RFP to any potential experts you feel could help lead this work for AFP in Canada. The deadline for submission is April 19, 2024 with an expected timeline of May – September 2024.
