Inclusive Staffroom
The Inclusive Staffroom: Addressing racial inclusion to support better staff wellbeing
Community groups
The overall aim of this project is to help to create more inclusive cultures for educators from global majority backgrounds that support their mental health and wellbeing.
You will make new connections and develop new insights and perspectives.
Each community group will meet three times over the academic year, each a maximum of 90 minutes.
You will be guided by an expert facilitator throughout the sessions.
They will provide you with support along the way and create a safe space for reflection and discussion. Whilst there is no formal structure for the groups, a set of agreed principles will be agreed at the start of the first group to ensure that everybody feels included and safe.
The term Global Majority includes those people who identify as Black, African, Asian, Brown, Arab and mixed heritage, are indigenous to the global south, and/or have been racialised as ‘ethnic minorities’. Globally, these groups currently represent approximately eighty-five percent of the world’s population, making them the Global Majority now (Campbell-Stephens, 2021)
