Anti-racist practice
Consider what anti-racist practice means in the context of professional identities and organisations.
This workshop will support participants to consider what anti-racist practice means to them in the context of their professional identities and organisations.
Participants will explore the contextual complexities of anti-racist practice through an intersectional lens, recognising how their power and biases may affect the people they are working with.
Through the engagement of critical thinking and open dialogue, participants will work towards being more attuned to addressing racism, marginalisation and exclusion on the personal, team and organisational level.
Participants will explore the importance of allyship and assess whether allyship is sufficient for addressing anti-racism.
