Do you ever hear someone say something inappropriate in the workplace, that would be considered a microaggressions but wait for someone else to speak up.

For each day of the 5-Day Challenge, you will find an eye-opener question and a choice of answers. Depending on how you answered the question, there will be a selection of actions you could consider. You do not need to share your answers with anyone.

About The 5-Day Challenge

5 Challenges – 5 Minutes – 5-Days

Built by the Race Equality Matters Community.

There are many barriers to driving race equity, including a lack of understanding of what it feels like to be in others’ shoes and how to be positively inclusive.

Small changes can make a real difference to how we act and, in doing so, how we make people feel.

If everyone makes a small change – it adds up and becomes powerful and impactful and
enables real change.

Over the next 5 days, we ask everyone to take just 5 minutes each day to self-reflect and
commit to taking action that will drive this change.

If we can Listen to what needs to be done and take Action on what we have heard and learnt, then we can create and be the Change to tackle race inequality. This is why the 2024 Race Equality Week theme is #ListenActChange.

 

The 5-Day Challenge will help

There are different activities for you to engage with each day of Race Equality Week – they include videos, articles, and activities to help you reflect and, more importantly, take action to drive Race Equality.

Each daily activity is 5 minutes, and there are ready-to-go downloadable PDFS for each day.
