EHR Webinar 4 – Impact and Outcomes (video and transcription)
Slide 1 – Introduction
Hello, and thank you for watching this webinar which is about the impact and outcomes of the Equality and Human Rights Fund. My name is Holly and I am a member of the Equality and Human Rights Team at Inspiring Scotland.
Slide 2 – Framework
Within the Fund Guidance notes there is information on a strategic framework for funding. There is a diagram which sets out fund inputs, outputs, and outcomes and impact and relating it all back to the national performance framework and UN Sustainable Development Goals.
This framework will be used to learn about the delivery and impact of funded organisations. We are therefore asking all applicants to tell us how the activity they propose contributes to the intermediate and longer-term outcomes in the framework.
Slide 3 – Intermediate Outcomes
There are five intermediate outcomes. These are:
Slide 4 – Longer Term Outcomes
There are also three longer-term outcomes which are:
It is important to look at these and select which outcomes you think your work does or could contribute to. You don’t need to select all of them, just the ones that are relevant to the work you want funded.
Slide 5 – Protected Characteristics
As we have mentioned in the other videos the Fund will support work that advances human rights, promotes equality, and tackles discrimination.  And as I mentioned on the previous slides, some of the outcomes refer to people with protected characteristics.
Under the Equality Act 2010 it is illegal to discriminate against, or harass someone, because of a protected characteristic. These include age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion and belief, sex, and sexual orientation.
For the purposes of this funding programme, the outcomes refer in particular to age, sex, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, disability, and race.
The other protected characteristics are led by other Scottish Government portfolios and there are some different strands of funding with a focus on community cohesion and inclusion being developed. More information on those funding arrangements will be available after the Scottish parliamentary election in May 2021.
