Racial Justice Audit Analysis of PHF’s UK Grant-making 2021/22

Published: 31 October 2022 

We applied the Funders for Race Equality Alliance (FREA) racial justice audit tool to our UK grant-making in 2021/22, analysing our portfolios in terms of the proportion of grants and funds awarded in support of Black or minoritised-led organisations and projects. 

This is our second annual audit, and the report compares the results of the audits from 2021/22 and 2020/21 to support the Foundation to consider the changes that have been made in our grant-making and to identify areas for further improvement. The tool and these findings have given us a new perspective on our grant-making and will inform shifts in our practice towards our commitments to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. In this blog, Ushi Bagga, Head of Programme – Arts, and Nina White, Data and Information Officer, reflect on the results of our latest racial justice audit.
