About Diversify

Diversify tackles systemic inequities rooted in historical, social, and ideological factors that perpetuate division, fragmentation, and polarization in societies, workplaces and communities.

Our work operates at the intersection of social justice, democracy, climate sustainability, and belonging. We apply mixed-methods analysis, engage diverse stakeholders, and prioritize turning dialogues into decisive, impactful action.

Our Approach

No matter the project or community we engage with, our approach consistently follows these key principles:

  • Intersectional Analysis: Addressing overlapping systems of discrimination.
  • Multi-stakeholder Partnerships: Engaging diverse actors to drive collaboration.
  • Capacity Building: Equipping stakeholders with tools to dismantle systemic barriers.
  • Accountability Metrics: Establishing transparent, equitable policies with tracking mechanisms.
  • Community Engagement: Co-designing solutions with marginalized groups.
  • Action Plans: Developing clear roadmaps with timelines and accountability measures.

This framework ensures sustainable, systemic change across all our initiatives.
