On a mission to challenge discrimination

Striving for an equal society

Together with our partners, communities, and dedicated teams, we strive for a society that is equal by creating new ways to challenge discrimination of all kinds.

Championing race equality

We will achieve the reality of equality through innovative research, our on-the-ground community projects, our expertly delivered anti-racism training sessions, and championing victims by providing a voice when they need Race Equality First most.
