Diversity and Decolonisation Community Pot
The diversity and decolonisation community pot supports diversity and decolonisation work within the CoLab using two methods of access: diversity stipends for participation of people from a diverse background to contribute to existing projects and diversity grants which cover training and aligned events.
Project Aims
For the diversity stipend: to provide funding assistance to individual CoLab members access to paid work within CoLab projects teams already in place.
For the diversity grant: to provide funding to groups working on training and education with the theme of diversity and decolonisation.
