About This Funder

Network for Social Change Charitable Trust drives progressive social change by funding initiatives tackling root causes of injustice, inequality, and environmental degradation toward a fairer, sustainable world. Core values emphasize justice, peace, environmental sustainability, racial equity, non-violence, and legality, with a philosophy favoring innovative, high-risk, under-resourced projects for transformative, long-term structural impact. They prioritize collaborative, member-driven grantmaking that empowers grassroots leadership, lived experience, capacity building, and scalable models addressing systemic inequities through strategic, leveraged interventions.

Thematic priorities span environmental protection and climate justice supporting carbon reduction targets, biodiversity conservation, pollution mitigation, agroecological farming, and youth climate action via policy research, capacity building, and grassroots mobilisation; racial justice backing projects led by racialised minorities and those impacted by discriminatory policies like Windrush injustices through advocacy, legal support, and community-led campaigns; peace and conflict resolution funding diplomacy, human rights defenders, anti-militarism efforts, and research on warfare technologies such as drones; economic and labour rights advancing worker education, policy campaigning, union skills training, cooperative development, economic democracy, and corporate accountability exposing malpractice; plus human rights advocacy, health equity initiatives, and training for marginalized workers and activists. They support activities including national policy advocacy, research, legal challenges, capacity building for grassroots organizations, replicable mobilisation models, and network strengthening, prioritizing beneficiaries like racialised communities, low-wage workers facing exploitation, youth environmental activists, human rights defenders, and groups with direct lived experience of injustice.

Exclusions encompass building projects, disaster relief, illegal activities, party-political work, and violence-promoting efforts. Distinctive for risk-tolerant support of overlooked, radical campaigning by less formal grassroots groups led by affected communities—racialised minorities, exploited workers, peace activists—they favor lived-experience leadership, non-charitable flexibility for bold advocacy, global reach on transnational issues like climate and peace, and unwavering commitment to structural transformation over symptomatic relief, empowering equity-driven, community-led change.
