Eight years of piecing together the puzzle(s) of inclusion, innovation and intersectionality

Coming full circle

As we come full circle, we don’t end at the same place but rather re-create a new path as we enrich our understanding of and further promote NOW-Us. What does this principle mean to us and what power does it hold?

The Power of Nothing About Us Without Us! (NOW-Us!)

We started eight years ago to run an innovative grant facility for diversity and inclusion. To reach the furthest behind first and support their empowerment, their influencing capacities and the amplification of their initiatives.

For Voice it means recognising, respecting and ensuring that rightsholders are leading their own change agendas for inclusion, development and rights.

Join us as we celebrate the beauty of diversity and the power of inclusion! Through this map, we share with you the vibrant energy of Voice focus countries as we look back on our journeys the past eight years, and more importantly, look forward to what we can still do together. Keep posted as we continuously update this map with snippets from celebrations around the different countries!

Voice has always been about the rightsholders and their narratives. It is about understanding the differences and similarities among communities and advocacies, the boundaries and possibilities when we come together, and the magic this togetherness brings when we uphold each other’s dignity. Listen to the magical moments of individuals and organisations from our Voice community!
