We generate research to challenge structural racism in Britain
For more than 50 years, we have worked tirelessly to build a Britain in which we all enjoy equal opportunities.
46% of ethnic minority children are living in poverty in Britain.
For every £1 of White British wealth, Indian households have 90-95p, Pakistani households 50p, Black Caribbean 20p, and Black African and Bangladeshi households have 10p.
Black people are 18 times more likely to be stopped and searched under Section 60 than their white counterparts.
Fewer than 1% of students at GCSE level study a book by a writer of colour.
We provide the evidence to understand racial injustice
From broadening the curriculum to exposing the Windrush scandal, our work is rooted in understanding structural racism and its impact on our communities. Proudly independent, for over 50 years our authoritative research-based interventions have equipped decision makers, practitioners and citizens with the knowledge and tools to deliver genuine progress towards racial justice in Britain.
