Colleges across the sector are encouraged to take part in a collective campaign aligned with Show Racism the Red Card.
Led by the Black History Month (BHM)/Anti-Racism Working Group within CDN’s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Strategic Network, the initiative aims to bring colleges together to create a strong, shared voice that raises awareness and supports anti-racism across the sector.
Colleges are invited to submit a short contribution showing their support for the campaign. There is no set format – the aim is to keep messages brief so that as many institutions as possible can take part. Contributions could include a photo, a short video clip, a blog or a short statement.
CDN will compile all submissions into a shared slideshow or video, which will be circulated collectively. Supporting blogs or statements may also be published ahead of the main release to help build momentum for the campaign.
To allow time for development, materials should be submitted by Friday 27 March, with the final promotional content scheduled to be shared week commencing 27 April.
The working group has also contacted Show Racism the Red Card about the possibility of sharing the materials across its platforms, helping to extend the reach of the campaign.
Colleges interested in taking part, or with any questions, can email marketing@cdn.ac.uk.
