No right turn: a Community Development response to far right influence in communities

 
Date and time: 
Thursday, March 18, 2010 - 10:00 - 15:00

 Thursday 18th March 2010, The Courtyard, Goole, 10.00 – 3.00

  • Are you concerned about the rise of the far right and their ability to impact on communities and your work as a Community Development Worker?
  • Are you not sure how to respond, or in what ways you're allowed to respond?

for example if you're a council employee working under elected representatives who are actively expressing anti-discriminatory views: anti-gay, anti-BME, anti-women, anti-disability

  • Would you like to share your concerns with others and explore tactics that effectively challenge these situations?

This session will provide you with an opportunity to:

  • share experiences and concerns about the rise of the far right and their impact on communities and CD work
  • increase your knowledge about the far right and the methods they use in communities; government responses, particularly from the Department for Communities and Local Government; responses to myths and mis-information
  • share experiences of challenging discriminatory attitudes and influence within communities and apply them to a range of scenarios
  • find out about available relevant resources
