Speakers
In the year since George Floyd’s death there have been countless conversations regarding people’s experience of racism. These conversations are nothing new.
As we look towards the future it’s time to move beyond discussing the experiential and look at the practical steps we need to take, both at the institutional and individual level, to tackle racism in all its forms.
In this workshop you’ll hear from speakers as they discuss the situation in their respective countries, their own vision for the future, how we might get there and what to do when you meet resistance along the way.
What you'll learn:
- How to have difficult conversations on race and how these vary across contexts
- How the fight for racial equality compares to that of gender equality and why it’s important that we act now
- Actionable steps you can take to drive the conversation forward
- Ways to overcome resistance at all levels
Who should watch:
This workshop is for anyone looking to drive the conversation on racial equality forward in a meaningful way and push for systemic change.
