Influencing Change: Improving Dialogue between BAME Communities and the Public Sector

This free event is an excellent opportunity for BAME forums and infrastructure bodies to discuss and produce models of effective engagement. There will be a number of interactive workshops for groups to discuss how they can be involved in delivering policy driven initiatives at a local level, and put forward questions to key statutory bodies. After the event MiNet will extract best practice and share this more widely across London and with key decisions makers.
