Just doing a little late night perusing of INGO's statements of solidarity with the Black community from this week... #DevCommsNerd

While some mentioned how important diversity was, NOT ONE mentioned starting where they are and changing their own governance and leadership. /1
Not the biggies like @WorldVisionUSA, @CARE, @CatholicRelief, @SavetheChildren. Not the "cool" ones like @charitywater or @PIH or @Heifer or @Ashoka or @OxfamAmerica. Not the humanitarian ones like @mercycorps or @RESCUEorg or @MSF_USA. Not @PlanUSA. Not @PactWorld. Not @fhi360.
When it comes to anti-Black racism work and #globaldev or #socialgood work, we have to start right where we are.

No more "statements" and intellectualization and crappy DEI training, please. how-matters.org/2020/06/01/way… /3

Can't help thinking that the Coronavirus will have a massive rupture on international civil society organisations in the long-term #INGOs #ICSOs. #Shiftthepower. THREAD.
2/For one, travel restrictions will undoubtedly continue for some time. What does this mean for the INGOs who rely on their ability to be basically be ubiquitous?
3/We already know that many countries will use this as a way to clamp down on human rights by further restricting things such as freedom of speech, and freedom of assembly...so closing space will become an even stronger phenomenon
