Becoming Anti-Racist: from awareness to action                              image-20240423105053-1.png

A session for Board members, Senior Leaders & Governance staff

We’re delighted to be offering our anti-racism training as an open access session for board members, senior leaders and governance staff to attend.

This course builds on the awareness raised throughout the Black Lives Matter movement, ties in with our Deeds Not Words pledge to action  and supports organisations to achieve the Anti-Racist Wales Action Plan (ARWAP) requirement for all Board members and senior leaders to undertake anti-racism training by December 2023.

 

About the Training

Board members and senior leaders have a role to play in dismantling systemic barriers and establishing the tone of the organisation, so they must embed anti-racism into their strategic priorities to effectively drive change.   Anti-racism objectives will be unique to each organisation depending on its customers, geographical location, colleagues, suppliers and other stakeholders.   

This session will leave Board members and senior leaders better equipped to understand and identify ways to address racism and its impact in your organisation and feel more confident to have difficult conversations.

Group discussions and interactive activities will give participants the opportunity to deepen their understanding of issues relating to race and racism.

 

Objectives – The Learners will be able to:

🏠 Recognise the importance of Anti-Racist Wales Action Plan (ARWAP)

🏠 Understand the Historical Perspective

🏠 Identify what is meant by the term’s “racism” and “anti-racism”

🏠 Define anti-racism in the housing sector

🏠 Explore good governance and positive action for anti-racism
