On behalf of my fellow trust-ees I wish to extend a warm welcome to this important Voice4Change England con-ference. It is a fact that race is off the agenda and that the austerity squeeze has been felt hardest by organisations in the voluntary and community sector. With the opening-up of public services to private providers has come a simulta-

neous widening of disparities in service provision. Diversity of service provision should al-low the opportunity to elimi-nate disparities but are there real opportunities for our or-ganisations? Today is about how we promote and sup-port infrastructure to set up a framework to work together collectively to eliminate race inequalities and achieve social

justice. The conference of-fers us a unique opportunity to focus firmly on exploring alternatives in collaboration with diverse voices and inter-est groups. Open societies and inclusive political systems and indeed strong economies cannot be built without par-ticipation from black and mi-nority ethnic led organisations and businesses.

NEENA SAMOTA - V4CE CHAIR

This conference asks big questions about race policy development. In the current hostile climate confronting equality how can the race equality agenda be pushed forward without being mar-ginalised, or trivialised. To do that requires a serious exami-nation of where we are as a sector and where we want to go. This conference is the

start of that conversation and we welcome contributions from all those attending and joining us on social media. We don’t want to just talk about the problems, we also want to highlight the suc-cesses and identify solutions. How can we use social en-terprise to improve employ-ment prospects? How can it be that another generation of

politicians and policy makers schooled in the language of anti–racism still launch old at-tacks on immigrant commu-nities? With criminal justice, do we need to move beyond the Stephen Lawrence In-quiry? But most importantly how can we end the circle of inequality that shaped our pasts and is still able to repro-duce itself today?

A RACE TO THE TOP:DEFINING OURSELVES

The mantra of partnership working has been drummed into us at local level but there are questions about accountabil-ity and decision-making processes that need to be examined. What does this mean for BME groups and our survival? VC4CE have been developing a major piece of work around partnerships and collaborations that identifies key barriers to do with infrastructure organisations. Issues of trust, equality and the culture of organisations were prominent as well as the need to share resources and building a consensus. Some of the key questions are: Should BME VCS groups be competing with each other in the market economy or should they collaborate? Can we bridge the gap between working in the sector

Partnershipsfor success inausterity age

and grass roots activism? What space is there for partnerships and collabora-tions? And how can we get account-ability in multi-agency partnerships and challenge these being used by the police and councils to hide malpractice?

Race equality has increas-ingly taken a backseat, or has even disappeared, from the political agenda. The merging of equalities top-ics stands in contrast with persisting, or even worsen-ing, race inequality includ-ing BME unemployment. Meanwhile recent research showed a shockingly high (30%) proportion of the Brit-ish public admit to being

r a c i a l l y p r e j u -d i c e d . In this seem-i n g l y d i r e situa-tion,

where the goal of achiev-ing ‘equality in our lifetime’ appears an unachievable dream, what steps do we need to take to turn the tide? Dr Sanjiv Lingayah will be launching a discussion pamphlet arguing that BME communities need to rede-fine the agenda in order to reclaim it.

POLICING THE POLICE

Policing is massively signifi-cant issue for many in our communities. From the ex-cesses of the anti-terror and ‘Prevent’ security apparatus, to the stop and search and police harassment which impacts particularly on young black and brown men, to the battles that many families are waging

against the police and the state to why their loved ones have died in police custody. The policing semi-nar will explore how the methodology and racialisa-tion around gangs has im-pacted on policing practice and on our communities in terms of the targeting of already scarce resources in

this area. The seminar will explore the rise of the Po-lice & Crime Commission-ers and the Mayor’s Office on Policing and Crime need to be analysed in this con-text and discuss the fallout of the war on terror in this country and what can we do to challenge this ideol-ogy and its manifestations.

Black and Minority Eth-nic (BME) representation in the media has gained

more coverage late-ly after Lenny

Henry urged b r o a d -

casters t o

em-

ploy more BME staff and even suggested a boycott of the BBC licence fee, and Sir Trevor McDonald warned of an ‘Apartheid’ system in the mainstream media. The departure of longstanding BBC broad-caster Dr Kurt Barling, and BBC3’s decision to screen a white comedian blacked-up in Jonah of Tongo has also focussed more atten-tion on this issue. It ap-pears that very little prog-ress has been made in the 13 years since Greg Dyke, then director-general of the BBC, called his insti-tution ‘hideously white.’ Figures showing a 31% decline in BME workers in the creative industries, de-

spite those sectors being concentrated in London the most diverse city in Eu-rope, and despite the high proportion of BME gradu-ates with media-related degrees, has underlined the need to act. But what can be done?

SOCIAL ENTERPRISE: THE FINAL FRONTEERBME (Black and Minority Ethnic) com-munities are some of the most entre-preneurial in the UK, often as a result of families from overseas having a business background. Despite the fact that businesses play a significant part in employment and income and wealth generation for BME communi-ties there are on-going problems ac-cessing loans and investment. There is widespread recognition that busi-nesses and social enterprises can play a significant role in combatting dis-proportionate BME unemployment and poverty. Yet questions remain about whether budding BME entre-preneurs have enough support, in-formation and mentoring to increase their chances of success. The social enterprise seminar aims to highlight examples and case-studies of successful SME projects and show what basic steps are to setting up an

SME and what help is available. Guest speakers, including the chair Iqbal Wahhab (pictured), will also explore the key challenges facing BME social entrepreneurs and the solutions. They will ask how BME communities better support social enterprises, and what practical recommendations govern-ment and agencies can adopt to boost Black businesses.

The agenda around educa-tion and schools is constantly changing and evolving. The rise of academies and the free school movement provide dis-tinct opportunities and threats. The marketisation of educa-tion is deeply problematic and the fall-out is damaging. The recent Trojan Horse epi-sode in Birmingham illustrates these contradictions and State paranoia. The impact on faith schools and the supplemen-tary schools from all of this needs to be examined. Finally why the good news story in London that attainment has

been boosted by children from newly arrived communi-ties has been buried

Partnerships & CollaborationVoice4Change England has set out in a number of statements the importance of BME organisations engaging in col-laborative working and partnerships as a means to overcoming what we see as a uniquely challenging social, political and economic climate for charity and community based organisations. This is particularly true for infrastructure organ-isations. We recognise that there are bar-riers to forming new partnerships; be-tween BME organisations and perhaps even more difficult between specialist organisation like ourselves and main-stream charities.

Social equality through social e n t e r p r i s eIn times when employment has be-come increasingly difficult for young people from BME communities the idea of setting up your own social en-terpriseis becoming an important route for progress and for social mobility. V4CE aim to support community based projects and talented individuals who are great at finding and implement-ing bottom-up tailored solutions to problems in their own communities. We want to empower disadvantaged communities by supporting social en-terprise and show central government how social enterprises can reach BME communities. Many social enterprises are emerging to turn negative situa-tions into positives for communities but we now need to demonstrate and show evidence of added value. Our mission is to ensure that public policy meets the needs of BME communities by connecting them with new social investment opportunities, grants and local enterprise structure. Turning start up potential into long-term viability.

Join us today!Voice4Change England is a national membership organisation. We exist to make a long term positive difference to BME and other disadvantaged com-munities. As the only national mem-bership organisation dedicated to the BME VCS we speak to policymakers on the issues that matter to the sector and share good practice to better meet the needs of communities.

V4CE - DARING TO BE DIFFERENTVoice4Change was designed to be different, writes Kunle Olulode. Emerging from a

loose partnership of volun-tary organisations in 2005 to become a fully-fledged regis-

tered charity in 2010, its’ key objective was

to strengthen the Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) Volun-tary and community organi-

sations to meet the needs of disadvantaged communities. We are about enhancing the ways we work together cre-atively to define new solutions to the problems faced by the

sector. Over the last 20 years considerable progress has been made in tackling race inequality; however the reality is that it persists at significant levels. BME-led voluntary and community organisations play a crucial role in tackling disad-vantage. We believe that there is a need for a strong BME v o l u n t a r y and commu-nity sector. We have an established track record of devel-oping and d e l i v e r i n g i n n o v a t i ve programmes including on the ground training for

frontline voluntary organisa-tions and community groups while also acting as a bridge between local, BME organisa-tions and leading policy mak-ers. communities feel valued, enjoy equal opportunities, and can fulfil their potential - what-ever their race or ethnicity.
