Action for Race Equality

Our mission is to end racial inequality. We believe that the contribution of all communities makes a nation, builds dynamic local communities, generates wealth and improves well-being. We champion fairness, challenge discrimination and pioneer innovative solutions to empower Black, Asian and Mixed Heritage people through education, employment and enterprise. Our activities involve working with Government, business, public services, Black-led organisations and the media. As a national organisation ARE want to maximise our work with central government departments by connecting more directly with local Black and Minority Ethnic organisations and mainstream activities aimed at closing racial inequalities. We strongly believes that race inequalities will persist and in some areas such as unemployment, take generations to close unless we start to inspire local BME individuals and organisations to get actively involved in local decision making processes.
