A Call for a New Generation of Latinx Leaders
In times when it is crucial that more Latinx individuals have a say in institutions that ultimately impact their community, Hispanics in Philanthropy (HIP)’s Next Generation (NGen) Líderes Program is looking for 25 leaders "who want to contribute to the development of equitable philanthropy across the Americas."
NGen Líderes Program works to prepare mid-career Latinx professionals with the skills and network they need to advance and thrive. In that sense, HIP maintains a partnership with a transnational network of foundations with the goal to make impactful investments in the Latinx community.
Board diversity is one of those conversations in philanthropy that are key to advance efforts for a field that embraces equity and inclusion not only in theory but also in practice.
"Equity is the fair treatment, access, opportunity, and advancement for all people, while at the same time striving to identify and eliminate barriers that have prevented the full participation of some groups. (...) Tackling equity issues requires an understanding of the root causes of outcome disparities within our society," states Grantmakers in the Arts' racial equity statement.
