The Athena Project

#TheAthenaProject is a mentorship program for female #BME scholars in HE.

We are often asked why we made a #BAME #mentorship project the namesake of a #GrecoRomanGoddess from the genesis of #WesternCivilisation; disambiguating #theAthenaProject.

"The real question is whether dioceses, congregations, PCCs and clergy are willing to make lasting and significant change to Church culture and strategy, and recognise the cost of introspection, discomfiture and real repentance necessary for a transformational emancipation." 🔥🔥

One of the exciting things about this #COVID19 #BritishAcademySpecialGrant is that we won it in competition over 846 other #COVID19research proposals. A tad thrilled we made the cut!🍾

We really hope the findings will support the #CovidExitPhase and help build a hopeful future.

Thank you @SanjeePerera1 for this report. In recent weeks we’ve heard a lot about the Church & racism and as this points out - there’s a risk we don’t go beyond words. Here are findings from Sanjee’s survey of worshippers and practical recommendations https://t.co/1ERgx4hRY8

“They say come as WE are, rather than come as YOU are.”

Important & accessibile research by @SanjeePerera1 here - one for reading lists and training days for all @churchofengland colleges and dioceses - incredibly helpful for parish ministry. Thank you!

I am all zoomed as my 5.30 just cancelled.

And as much as I hate zoom, I am always grateful for time spent with enabler colleagues who share my hyper-passion for researching #CriticalWhitnessInTheology. Lovely to catch up @ChrisShannahan @DLClough @BenFulford1

In the current BLM / BAME dialogues, our latest paper (and its 2 follow ups to come) is must-read material. Dr. Sanjee Perera (@SanjeePerera1) is a Cognitive ecclesiologist, researching racialised stake-holds in the Church of England.
