The New World Foundation wishes to promote race and gender equality in the work it supports. To this end, we are interested in seeing constituencies served by grantees represented on their staffs and boards. When this has not yet been achieved we are interested in seeing progress in implementing a concrete developmental plan aimed at achieving such representation. In instances where there are sound reasons (e.g. geographic, purpose) for not moving in this direction, we are interested in seeing evidence of work with others (e.g., coalitions, campaigns) which promotes inclusion and equality in progressive movements for social change.

The New World Foundation does not discriminate in any of its activities based on age, religious affiliation, color, physical ability, gender, national origin, race, ethnicity, or sexual identity.
