Description

We have a responsibility to ensure that we recognise and respect the power of the people we exist for. Vic Hancock Fell co-founded a small international development charity when she was fresh out of university, age 21. She didn't feel it or know it at the time, but looking back 14 years later, she describes this as “peak White Saviour.”Most recently, through the context of her work at UK based Raising Futures Kenya, as a White/Western led INGO, she has been more active in advocating for responsibility to acknowledge and minimize White power in this space both as individuals and as organizations. In this episode, we take a look at the concept of ‘shift the power’, and why it is so important for us as socially purposed organizations, especially those working in global solidarity.  Vic is the Founder of Fair Development, a social enterprise founded in 2016. When working in house as a small charity leader, doing her masters in NGO management, the masters was focused on large organizations which ignited frustration that there wasn’t enough support for smaller orgs.
