Aim
Aim: This unit outlines the required knowledge and skills that underpin work on race and racism in Youth Work. Learners will explore the deeper dynamics and nuances of institutional racism and how the power dynamics it produces maintain the status quo and obscures its systemic nature. With critical reflection learners will challenge and evaluate interventions that can promote equality of outcomes in service and professional practice. Learners will be equipped to identify, engage and create change in professional and organisational practice.
