FRIDA is proud to partner and collaborate with change-making activists, groups and collectives. In these publications, we acknowledge, celebrate, and honor the achievements and impact of the young feminist movement around the globe. We seek to build knowledge around young feminist organizing and all FRIDA publications are a signifcant step towards #ChangingTheGame around the field.
FRIDA’s Grantmaking Policy is designed to guide the allocation of funds to young
feminist collectives that work toward gender justice. The policy is rooted in a
participatory grantmaking approach, where decision-making is shared with the
communities FRIDA aims to support. The policy is guided by FRIDA’s Strategic Plan
(2020-2030).
FRIDA’s Grantmaking Policy outlines the guidelines that inform how FRIDA
approaches and makes decisions on grantmaking on a day-to-day basis. As FRIDA is
committed to flexibility, FRIDA’s policies should not be understood as immutable
rules, but instead as possible paths to ensure our processes occur in a fair,
participatory, and safe way.
This report emerged as part of a three-year long documenting process of FRIDA’s participatory grantmaking model. It gathers our learnings in a comprehensive resource that can act as a compass for the next phase of this grantmaking model’s journey.This report attempts to capture all the pieces of FRIDA’s participatory grantmaking
process and the vastness of young feminist knowledge and experience. It goes beyond a
participatory funding toolkit and instead dives deep into self reflection about the politics,
principles, and values that are built into this participatory grantmaking practice.
