Race Equality Foundation: Mental Health and Wellbeing Collaborative

 
As we approach the ‘opening up’ of another lockdown and look towards recovery, how will the inequality that has been experienced by so many, especially black, Asian and minority ethnic communities, be addressed?
 
The Race Equity Collaborative project will build a narrative across seven collaborative areas focused on solutions regarding health and race inequalities. This is the first of two webinars seeking to influence the Covid-19 recovery plans for mental health and wellbeing.
 
Chaired by Tracey Bignall, Senior Policy and Practice Officer at Race Equality Foundation
 
Commissioned briefing paper presented by Professor Raghu Raghavan, University of Leicester and Dr. Jessica Jones Nielsen, City, University of London
 
This webinar on mental health and wellbeing will:
  • Present evidence about the inequalities experienced by black, Asian and minority communities during the pandemic.
  • Hear different perspectives about the challenges faced by people from these backgrounds.
  • Discuss and debate issues for policy makers to consider to ensure they address race and health inequalities experienced by black and minority ethnic communities with mental health and wellbeing.
 
Who should attend?
This event is of interest to policy makers, academics, practitioners across the voluntary and statutory sector, working to support black, Asian and minority ethnic families, and individuals from these communities.
