ABOUT

**LPFDev uses the term ‘international development’ to also encompass the human rights and humanitarian sector

LPFDev recognises the barriers and challenges that ‘people of colour’ face within the development sector. We work towards addressing and combating these through:

  • Providing practical solutions
  • Contributing to the reform of current discriminatory policy frameworks and practices in the sector
  • Providing a safe platform for open and candid discussions
  • Collective activism within the global community

GOAL

  • To move from ‘talking’ and towards creating practical change in the development sector

OBJECTIVES

  1. Influence concrete reform in the current policy framework and practices in the development sector
  2. Ensure that the voices of ‘people of colour’ in the development sector are amplified and not suppressed
  3. Promote pathways for opportunities for ‘people of colour’ within the development sector
