Intersectionality and Grantmaking: Transforming Global Development Research

SCIS invites you to the Intersectional Development Research Learning Session titled Towards Intersectional Grantmaking, on 27 June 2024, 2:00 -3:30 pm SAST

The Southern Centre for Inequality Studies warmly invites you to the second Intersectional Learning Session - Intersectionality and Grantmaking: Transforming Global Development Research. The webinar is the second in a three-part Intersectional Development Research Learning Series. The Learning Series provides an opportunity to learn and share knowledge about the opportunities and challenges of integrating intersectionality in development research to address persistent inequalities around the world.

This second Intersectional Learning Session will explore:

• The developments in development research that have led to increased interest in intersectionality
• The role of intersectionality in grantmaking 
• Best practices 
• Considerations for applying intersectional approaches at the programmatic level 
• Challenges and potential opportunities for addressing inequality and persistent power asymmetries in the global development architecture

Background
In 2023, SCIS in collaboration with Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC), undertook research to understand intersectionality and its relevance in global South contexts. The project resulted in eight case study reports that illustrated the diverse application of intersectional approaches in multiple countries across the global South.

Promoting Intersectional Development Research Learning Series is an opportunity to learn and share knowledge about the opportunities and challenges of integrating intersectionality in development research to address persistent inequalities around the world.
