Section 7 - Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) monitoring information
We want to hear more about the people who’ll benefit from your project and your organisation.
Question | Guidance |
---|---|
Is your project aimed at a specific group of people or is it open to everyone? |
If at least 75% of the people you support share characteristics, then your project is for a specific group. Your specific group may share one or more characteristics. For example, if 80% of the people you work with are female refugees, this means you support a specific group of people. In this example, they share two characteristics — women and refugees. We know this can only be an estimate. It’d be too difficult to work out exactly, especially if this is a new project.
