Objectives
IHRFG’s approach is based on seven core “inquiry questions” through which we guide our work and growth:
How do we…
- assist funders in strengthening the strategic effectiveness of their human rights grantmaking?
- cultivate thought leadership among human rights grantmakers, through which we challenge ourselves and others?
- foster collaboration, connection and community among human rights funders?
- develop into a network more truly global in participation and perspective?
- expand opportunities for funder engagement in shaping policies with relevance to human rights grantmaking?
- expand the extent to which funders across a range of issue areas incorporate a human rights framework into their grantmaking? and,
- ultimately, how do we increase overall funding for human rights?
