The Inclusivity Project

Founded in 2017, TIP works to advance the rights and dignity of communities discriminated on work and descent (CDWD), the communities affected by caste and analogous systems around the world. These communities continue to face deep-rooted social and economic exclusion, despite global recognition of discrimination based on work and descent.

TIP brings visibility, voice and action to these issues at national, regional and international levels. We strengthen communities through capacity building, partnerships and evidence based research that informs policy and advocacy.

TIP is dedicated to protecting and promoting the rights and dignity of individuals affected by discrimination based on work and descent. This form of discrimination is prevalent in many parts of thevworld affecting communities in Africa (Osu, Haratin, Mbororo and others), Europe (Roma), Asia (Dalitss, Burakumin), and Latin America (Quilombola and Pelanque). Discrimination based on work and descent affects more than 270 million people worldwide impacting their equal enjoyment of human rights.
