Development Phase Highlights
past workshops
During the development phase of the project, we delivered a series of ‘Let’s Talk Race and Racism’ workshops across primary and secondary schools.
These interactive sessions opened important conversations about race and racism and featured personal stories from members of the Black community, along with opportunities to explore and celebrate Black culture and heritage.
The workshops created a safe and engaging space for young people to learn, ask questions and reflect on the experiences of others in their own communities.
