@CoalitionRace
A partnership btwn Black South West Network & Bristol Uni bringing together those with/generating data & those who need it - in ways that make sense to all
Globally, there is a lack of concern in properly mitigating the climate crisis as the repercussions fall upon vulnerable Asian/African communities.

“At the heart of BSWN there is always research & data…also sustainability, resilience & resource-generating mechanisms led by communities with the sector.” @JirdeSado reflects on our core areas of work such as @COREBristol1 @CoalitionRace and the Super Six programme #AGM
“I have literally never worked in such a nurturing, compassionate & refreshing space centred upon commitment to race equality…’ Read the brilliant & insightful blog by BSWN intern @lottakennett on her experience working on the @CoalitionRace initiative. https://t.co/7Ajx1pdIZ9
The South West is one of the regions with the smallest percentage of ‘other than white’ ethnic groups, with 92% of the population classified as white British, 2% as ‘Asian’, 1% Black, 1.5% ‘Mixed’, 3.5% ‘white other’ and 0.3% in ‘other’ ethnic groups.
Delighted to be introducing RACE to Bristol Council’s Race Equality Gathering this afternoon. Thanks to @CllrAsherCraig and the team. #RACECoalition @angeliqueretief @saffronkarlsen@BlackSWNet
@CoalitionRace aims to connect research and data to community-led approaches, in ways that recognise, value and respond to communities’ lived experiences and diverse forms of knowledge and expertise. Read the blog piece written about the launch here: https://t.co/UkhobP4IlG
Today marks the 6th anniversary of the Black Lives Matter movement. BLM has spearheaded activism for Black rights and the anti-racist space, making unprecedented progress.

Today the @CoalitionRace's new initiative was virtually launched. A strategic collaborative co-designed space between BSWN & @BristolUni. To support the development of more evidence-based approaches to influence policy on #racedisparity. #RACELaunch🚀 https://t.co/U6sHwlSAww
It has been a delight absorbing the incredible perspectives of our panel at our RACELaunch today. This is co-creation; co-production. This is @CoalitionRace 2021!

@JirdeSado closes our event today: "We have been working on this for 4 years. We are not just leading, we are facilitating. At the heart of this is how we democratise research and data"

As our fantastic #RACELaunch🚀 comes to an end, @angeliqueretief talks about current projects RACE is taking on, which concentrate on making data more accessible and mapping the race equality eco-system in Bristol
