About the Project
The aim of this project is to create a network of parents committed to combating racism, to train them, and to distribute a multilingual booklet for the elections of parent representatives.
Three outcomes are expected: the establishment of an operational group in schools, the training of contact persons able to identify and report discrimination, and the strengthening of the legitimacy of racialised families. To achieve this, the project plans to organise coordination
committees, breakfast meetings, public debates, awareness-raising and self-defence workshops, seminars, free legal advice sessions, and campaigns to distribute the booklet online and on paper.
