Our staff created these values to describe the types of behaviour we value every day at work. They reflect our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, and we build these into our approach to recruitment and performance.
The importance of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion to our mission
We are committed to becoming a more diverse, equitable and inclusive organisation not only in what we do, but how we do it because we genuinely believe Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is a key enabler to achieving our mission of driving health equity.
As of 31 March 2025, 73.6% of the people working in the foundation were female, with 35.8% of staff from the Global Majority. 11.2% of our workforce has a declared disability and 11.2% of our workforce identified as LGBTQ+.
Better health for all is within our reach. We believe that becoming more diverse, equitable and inclusive is not just the right thing to do but will help us achieve our mission of driving health equity faster. By focusing as much on how and who we work with as well as what we work on fund and invest in.
We’re committed to removing barriers and taking bold actions to ensure our own organisation is equitable, diverse and inclusive. To do this, we not only look at our internal practices. We also support a diverse pipeline of partners and suppliers and take intentional action to ensure our actions today leave behind a fair and equitable foundations of a healthier society and reduce inequality in health.
“Every day I get to see how collaboration not only brings joy but edges us closer to achieving our mission” Ram Sri-Pathmanathan, Head of Systems on our shared culture
