Resources
One of my goals is to share the information and resources I’ve gained through my research into what we can do to tackle prejudice and racism and promote diversity, equity and inclusion in their place. I know many people feel overwhelmed by the depth and complexity of the issues and don’t know where to start. There are many organisations and individuals working in this field; my aim is to encourage and support educators and school communities to utilise the resources available and take the lead in their own spheres of influence.
This list of resources will be added to on an ongoing basis…
