Women’s Inclusion

One Earth Future (OEF) prioritizes diversity, inclusion and belonging, not only throughout our offices and staff teams, but also within the programs we operate globally.

We believe that in order to be successful both as an organization and as drivers of change in our mission to build sustainable peace worldwide, we must be relentlessly proactive in creating enabling environments that foster a feeling of empowerment and belonging among our communities. We are committed to building a culture of inclusivity and equality as part of our operational values.

One Earth Future’s Perspectives on Peace video series spotlights some of the powerful women leaders across our program teams, lending their voices and dedicating their talents to building sustainable peace and a more equitable world for all.

At One Earth Future, we consider the different experiences, priorities, needs, and values of women, men, girls, boys, and nonbinary persons. We take into account how they impact the success of every program and funding decision.
