Accelerating change with anti-racist approaches in the NHS
Join the BME Leadership Network for its Black History Month annual lecture at the Royal College of Nursing with Professor Stephani Hatch.
Speakers
As part of our activities for Black History Month during October 2024, our BME Leadership Network is holding a face-to-face annual lecture for its members, taking place on Wednesday 23 October 2024 at the Royal College of Nursing in central London.
Professor Stephani Hatch will deliver her lecture on ‘Accelerating change with anti-racist approaches in the NHS’. Professor Hatch will share anti-racism approaches, lessons learned and evidence-based actionable insights to help leaders dismantle processes that are perpetuating racism and tackle resistance to change within healthcare.
In line with the national Black History Month theme of ‘reclaiming narratives’, Professor Hatch will reflect on her personal experience as an antiracism activist in the UK and USA, celebrating the unacknowledged successes of the antiracism struggle and highlight the importance of inclusion, solidarity and sustainability.
Drawing on her extensive academic experience, Professor Hatch will also explain some of the latest evidence on how staff experience of racial discrimination and harassment contributes to the growing health inequalities experienced in racialised communities, preventing the NHS delivering its core mission.
