@HNHeducation @TeessideUni Thank you! And thank you for attending and speaking at the conference! 😊

[HNH Education Unit @HNHeducation]

Fully recommend @CYRProject & @TeessideUni’s “Challenging Youth Racism Report to any PSHE/citizenship practitioners. Very good analysis on best practise in educating about racism (we also get a few mentions, which is nice 😊)

[Commission for Countering Extremism @CommissionCE]

In a speech to the #cyrconference @TeessideUni, Lead Commissioner Sara Khan warned that young people in our country are being targeted by extremist groups as future recruits. She emphasised the need for safe and trusted spaces for them to explore and share their views. #extremism
