ISDAO, Initiative Sankofa d’Afrique de l’Ouest, is an activist-led fund dedicated to building a West African movement for sexual diversity and sexual rights through a flexible approach to grant-making and the strengthening of a philanthropy culture committed to promoting human rights and social justice. Our Working Principles – the principles and values that guide ISDAO work are Activist-led, Feminism, Transparency, Accountability, Empowerment, Inclusion, Diversity and Intersectionality, Self-Determination, Flexibility, Equity, and Sustainability.

CONTEXT OF THE MISSION

After an extensive and participatory search, ISDAO is thrilled to have welcomed four dynamic leaders from the West African movement to ISDAO’s Governing Body, filling the roles of Secretary, two Co-Chairs, and Executive Director. As we continue strengthening our feminist governance structure, we are now recruiting for the remaining positions: Treasurer & Financial Sustainability Lead, Movement Strengthening and Impact Lead, Legal & Compliance Lead
