Report says racism is endemic in aid department’s HQ and network of offices abroad
Many black, Asian and minority ethnic men working in the Department for International Development claim to have experienced prejudice at work including racist jokes and doubts about their legality as UK citizens.
The government’s aid department has also been severely criticised for signing off an anti-sexual harassment campaign which portrayed BAME men following or restraining white women, in a report seen by the Guardian.
The findings, including a survey of BAME staff and published in March this year, were uncovered as the department faces a merger with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
The report which was published on 21 March, the international day for the elimination of racial discrimination, was commissioned by Whitehall’s Race Network which connects BAME staff. It focused on BAME men because their voices had been “silent’ in previous examinations of Dfid’s attitude towards race, the report said.
Prejudice against black men in the department came to the fore last year after Dfid published two images which appeared to portray BAME men as sexual predators, the report said.

What the end of DFID means for international development?
By Binit Agrawal In 2010, when over 78 billion people in India did not have access to sanitary toilets, a slow revolution was brewing across villages. Pramila, a gram-sevak (village volunteer) was a part of this revolution. She, along with her good morning squad, went from house to house inspiring people to start using toilets instead of defecating in the open. Within a year, she was able to help increase access to toilets from 25% to 100% in her village. Pramila was one of the many volunteers trained under a course supported by the Department for International Development (DFID). However, this course, and a multitude of other aid initiatives by DFID, may not go on for long. This is because the rumors of merging the DFID into the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) have come true. The effect of this merger on the UK’s aid initiatives has been widely discussed. In this post, I detail what impact this move will have on the poor across the globe. End of a Democracy Builder The failure of aid programs in having an impact on the lives of people has widely been investigated. It happens primarily because of the lack of strong grassroots democracy and good governance in the beneficiary states. Most aid funds in these countries are either hijacked by corrupt demagogues or come tied with corporate interests. DFID’s UK Aid, however, is untied, that is to say, it is not linked to other strategic or commercial interests of the donor. Read the full article
