Our Values
1
SOCIAL JUSTICE:
Our mission is to tackle the fundamental inequalities at their core, ensuring that every individual has the agency to control the decisions and access the resources necessary for a life of dignity. We are committed to catalyzing systemic transformations, envisioning a more equitable future that dismantles structural racism, gender oppression, and disparities in healthcare, economics, and the environment.
2
OPENNESS AND TRANSPARENCY:
Our commitment is to remain answerable to grassroots organizations and social movements dedicated to the cause of justice. We actively seek transparency in our interactions with partners, donors, supporters, and allies, sharing both our organizational strengths and challenges openly. Our resource-sharing practices align with the principles of justice and authenticity that underpin our mission.
3
RELATIONSHIPS:
At the Denzal Foundation, we believe that nurturing relationships forms the core of genuine collaboration and the growth of social movements.We are committed to employing a relationship-centric approach, which enables our strategies and engagement to adapt and respond to the evolving realities and priorities of our grassroots partners. Within our board and staff, we hold mutual respect in high regard and continually strive for greater unity in our collective efforts.

THE POWER OF ART IN SOCIAL CHANGE:
Art inspires people and has historically been a powerful tool to mobilize people towards collective action and social change. Art is an important part of Denzal Foundation’s story starting with our co-founder Syed Ali Umar. Creative expression comes in many forms and we believe all artists can utilize their platforms to change minds, open hearts and raise funds to help fuel grassroots solutions to hunger and poverty.
5
LEARNING AND A WILLINGNESS TO ADAPT:
We are committed to a practice of shared learning to develop and refine a collective analysis about the root causes of problems and evolve our approaches. This includes an ongoing monitoring and revision of internal policies with a goal of greater equity and alignment of organizational practices with our mission and theory of change.
6
GRASSROOTS LEADERSHIP AND COLLECTIVE WISDOM:
We understand that systemic transformation can only happen through grassroots-led movements. As a grassroots-support organization, our work must be informed by the experiences and analyses of community organizations and leaders, social movements, and people most impacted by inequility and injustice. We believe that processes which bring these different factors and communities together can allow us all to better understand our reality and develop common strategies, visions and solutions to end inequility and injustice including hunger and poverty.
7
INTERNATIONALISM:
The Denzal Foundation recognizes that the economic models and structures that perpetuate poverty and unemployment are interconnected on a global scale. To address these issues effectively, our organization promotes the collaboration, coordination, and solidarity of individuals and communities who face economic hardships and oppression worldwide. Operating from India with a primary emphasis on systemic transformation, we emphasize the importance of adopting an internationalist viewpoint. This perspective is essential for comprehending how policies originating in India can have far-reaching global consequences, and it allows us to explore international-level solutions to these challenges.

WE VALUE PEOPLE:
Our core philosophy centers around prioritizing individuals and their experiences as the key to addressing various societal issues. We firmly advocate for the protection of human dignity and the recognition of human potential. Within our organization, we are committed to fostering the well-being of our staff by cultivating a work environment that encourages flexibility, work-life balance, and the inclusion of diverse perspectives and life experiences.
