HOW TO USE THE IN-REN RACE EQUALITY TOOLKIT
This toolkit has a dual function. It aims to provide learning on race equality issues to better enable employers and practitioners to support people from ethnically diverse communities as part of the work of the IN-Ren Network.
Each of the numbered sections shown below, and at the right side bar highlight practical steps, small changes, top tips, links and references for further reading.
You will find it useful to work through each of the sections in their numbered order, or alternatively you can visit the section you are interested in. Workshop guides and excercises will be provided for specific tailored sessions involving the toolkit.
The toolkit will develop and update over time so we would appreciate any feedback you have on it.
