About this Event
The theme of our first annual conference is Intersectionality, Inclusion & Inspiration
Intersectionality, because we want to emphasise the intersecting, multi – dimensional needs that black, minoritised, and migrant women face, and how they should be addressed.
Inclusion, because we want to facilitate an open, safe space where the plight of the most disadvantaged women in our society is the focus.
Inspiration, because we want to inspire change and collective action for a more just, equitable society for black, minoritised and migrant women.
Who is the conference for?
This conference is for everyone from students to professionals. We encourage anyone who is interested in learning about the inequalities that black, minoritised, and migrant women face and how they intersect to make navigating daily life a challenge.
Conference Aims & Objectives
We aim to:
1. Encourage the development of strategic partnerships and alliances that are set up to meet the intersecting needs of Black, African and Caribbean migrant women
2. Drive discussions on protection and support mechanisms for black and migrant women that are culturally–competent and trauma–informed
3. Embed an understanding of the intersectional nature of black and migrant women’s experience of abuse and why they are more vulnerable
4. Strengthen best practice amongst structural systems in order to address systemic racism and neglect of black and minoritised women.
