Activate is a ground-breaking leadership development programme and collaboration between brap and The King’s Fund open to anyone working in a management or leadership role in health and care.
Through a combination of workshops and learning sets facilitated by a mixed faculty of brap and The King’s Fund facilitators, you will explore how you can see differently, respond differently and lead differently when it comes to anti-racism.
What will I learn on the Activate programme?
During the Activate programme you'll work with facilitators from The King’s Fund and brap to:
understand race, racism and racialised thinking
raise awareness of the role of whiteness in upholding racial hierarchies
navigate the tensions inherent in racial justice work
recognise how the status quo reproduces itself
understand the impacts of racism in health and care
Our anti-racism leadership development programme is supported by a handbook that presents the key, foundational ideas and concepts at the heart of the programme with journalling prompts and recommendations for further reading and watching.
