delivered by HumanKind (two project workers) in partnership
with Teesside University (two researchers). The project was
developed in response to concerns around high levels of prejudice
and discrimination and disproportionate levels of racially and
religiously motivated hate crime within North East England, an
area with a large White British population. CYR has delivered antiracism interventions to over 7,500 young people (aged 11-19)
across the region since July 2016. The bulk of our interventions
are our awareness raising workshops and our Racism Awareness
Project (RAP) which are run in a variety of educational and
community-based settings.
This report will highlight the effectiveness of CYR interventions delivered
to young people against its stated objectives, to: increase acceptance of
others, increase awareness on the impact of racism, and to encourage
young people to challenge/report racism. The CYR project has been
particularly effective in meeting its objectives, as can be seen in some key figures based on young people’s responses.
