ActionAid Rethinks Child Sponsorship in "Decolonisation" Drive
ActionAid UK is re-evaluating its child sponsorship program, a model criticized for potentially reinforcing racial stereotypes and power imbalances, as part of a broader effort to "decolonize" its approach to international aid. The organization aims to shift towards a more equitable partnership model that prioritizes long-term, community-led solutions, moving away from individual child sponsorship. This reflects a growing awareness in the aid sector of the need to address historical biases and promote solidarity over traditional donor-recipient dynamics.
