How to engage with minority ethnic communities
It is vital that people from all communities have the opportunity to get involved. This section of the guide gives you practical advice on engaging with minority ethnic communities, including:
• What terminology should we use?
• Where can I get further information?
This guidance is strongly based on the National Standards for Community Engagement. These standards are applicable to engagement with all equalities groups. But it does take time to think through how the principles set out in the standards apply to engagement with minority ethnic communities.
This guidance should help you to apply each of the standards to your activities:
• Support
• Planning
• Methods
• Feedback
