Summary
Becoming a part of Race Alliance Wales for #AntiRacistWales.
Details
This policy is proposing to make sure our Students’ Union makes a public commitment to anti-racist work and becomes a member of Race Alliance Wales (RAW). RAW is an initiative that aims to connect and support organisations interested in achieving race equality in Wales. Their manifesto has 10 goals, which include:
· Collecting ethnicity data in the workforce and various sectors,
· Developing a strategic race equality plan,
· Including anti-racist education in the New Curriculum for Wales,
· Supporting the improvement of Wales’ legal response and access to justice and safety for minority ethnic individuals,
· Investing in physical and mental health support for ethnic minority people.
By becoming a member of this organization we can; collaborate in their campaigns, petitions, and attend Race & Equality Cross part group meetings and policy circle meetings.
I believe becoming a part of this organization will support our “No Excuses” campaign and reflect positively on our university’s BAME community.
