360Giving DEI Extension¶
This is the documentation site for the DEI Extension for 360Giving. The DEI Extension is an extension to the 360Giving Data Standard which will support you validating and publishing data using the Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion (DEI) Data Standard inside of your 360Giving Data.
The DEI Data Standard is developed and maintained by the DEI Data Group. The 360Giving Data Standard is developed and maintained by 360Giving.
This DEI Extension for 360Giving is developed and maintained by 360Giving as a response to the publication of the DEI Data Standard.
Governance and Versioning¶
As an extension to the 360Giving standard, the DEI Extension for 360Giving is not tied directly to the governance process of the 360Giving standard itself.
We will strive to maintain compatibility with the latest release of 360Giving. We envision that this is a straightforward process, as the design of the DEI Extension is such that its footprint is limited to the deiDetails
field. Any changes to 360giving should not directly affect the DEI Extension.
Similarly, we will strive to maintain compatibility with the DEI Standard itself. We will do this by issuing updates to the DEI Extension to bring it in line with the taxonomy structure and codes included in the DEI Data Standard, as well as any guidance about how to apply this to grantmaking. From the perspective of the DEI Extension for 360Giving we anticipate that this mostly means updating our codelists to match the DEI Data Standard taxonomies, however it may also entail some other structural changes.
We will use semantic versioning to version this extension: MAJOR updates will not be compatible with previous versions of the extension, MINOR updates will add new features that are backwards compatible, and PATCH updates will fix bugs and amend documentation. This version number is separate from each: the version number of the 360Giving Data Standard; and the version number of the DEI Data Standard.
Reference¶
The DEI Extension for 360Giving defines new properties and structures for use within 360Giving, for the purpose of publishing data using the DEI Data Standard within a 360Giving grants file.
If you are not yet familiar with the 360Giving Data Standard, you should review its documentation before reading this page.
Extension Structure Overview¶
The DEI Extension uses reusable definitions as much as possible, in order to simplify its structure. The extension adds three new objects: DEIDetails
, DEIApplicationArea
, and DEIResponse
.
The DEI Extension also adds a number of new codelists to validate the contents of various properties.
The DEI Extension adds a new property called deiDetails
to each grant, which is an object of type DEIDetails
. Inside deiDetails
there are three properties: leadership
, mission
, and project
. Each of thse are of the type DEIApplicationArea
. These represent the application areas of the DEI data standard for grantmaking.
Inside DEIApplicationArea
are some properties used to represent whether a question was asked (and how), as well as an object containing the response to that question, with the type of DEIResponse
.
Therefore you can think of the extension structure as follows:
grants (from 360Giving)
deiDetails (a DEIDetails object)
leadership
(aDEIApplicationArea
object)response
(aDEIResponse
object)Other properties
mission
(aDEIApplicationArea

Taxonomy Codes¶
The Single Source of Truth (SSOT) for the DEI Taxonomy codes vocabulary is the DEI Data Standard. The DEI Extension for 360Giving takes the vocabulary/codes provided in the DEI Data Standard and encodes it into a JSON file named taxonomy.json
which represents the taxonomy (available for view and download on the Taxonomy page). The taxonomy.json
file preserves the hierarchical nature of the taxonomy and aims to provide a general-purpose machine-readable form of the taxonomy.
In order to validate the contents of the response codes inside the DEIResponse/taxonomyCodes field, we generate this codelist directly from the taxonomy.json
file. You should therefore treat this codelist as a reference for validation purposes only. If there are differences between this and the codes available in the official taxonomy, please get in touch with us so that we can update this codelist.

Examples¶
This page contains some illustrative examples for showing you how to use the Extension. The examples are presented in JSON format.
Example 1: Not asked because not applicable¶
A funder has decided that the DEI questions are not applicable to this grant and has not asked them at all.
Example 2: DEI Information was requested after the grant was made, and no reply was received¶
A funder has asked for DEI information after awarding a grant, but has not received a reply from the organisation.
The options available to the respondent to choose were: Taxonomy Population Groups, Taxonomy Categories, Taxonomy Subcategories, Geography, and Lived Experience
Example 3: DEI Information was requested during the application process, and a reply was received¶
A funder awarded a grant, and during the application process it asked for DEI information. The only options available to the respondents were: Taxonomy Population Groups, Taxonomy Categories, and Taxonomy Subcategories.
The funder received a response for each application area.
Taxonomy¶
This page contains an overview of the DEI Taxonomy, which is used in this extension.
Please be aware that the Single Source of Truth for Taxonomy is the DEI Data Standard. The DEI Extension for 360Giving takes the taxonomy as laid out in the DEI Data Standard and encodes it into a machine readable JSON format.
The tables below are generated from the taxonomy in JSON format. The Taxonomy Codes codelist used for validating data is also generated from the same JSON file.
DEI01 - Communities experiencing racial inequity¶

Ethnic group refers to the group that people self identify with, which may be related to their national/geographical origin, skin colours, and other identities.
