Description
Racism, discrimination and inequalities impact many of our fellow citizens and neighbours, pushing them to the margins of our communities and creating barriers that limit their abilities to live full lives. This affects us all, weakening our civic morality, and our trust and confidence in each other.
Much of the responsibility for addressing structural inequalities and systemic racism has fallen on our public institutions, who in some cases are responsible for sustaining these fault lines, and therefore are not equipped to bring about the changes that we want to see.
Bringing about a society that is just, equal, fair and anti-racist, is our collective responsibility. The biggest resource that we have to achieve this vision is ourselves. We are the people that we have been waiting for!
We choose to stand in the space between active citizens and communities and public institutions, facilitating collaborative, coproduced solutions and interventions that address some of our most complex challenges. Presently, we are tackling health inequalities, and from there we move forward.
