It is well evidenced that racism has a detrimental effect on individuals physical and mental health. This experience is further compounded where systemic or institutional racism occurs resulting in discrimination through societal systems, practices, and policies which produce and perpetuate inequities for racial minorities. How can we mobilise anti-racist practice to reduce racial health inequalities in the health and care sector?
Race Equity Maturity Index
The Race Equity Maturity Index is a tool developed by London Anti-Racism Collaboration for Health (LARCH) to support organisations in progressing race equity by enabling the tracking and improvement of race maturity levels. The index supports organisations in the actions they take to embed anti-racist practice. The REMI therefore complements the current equality, diversity and inclusion assessments and initiatives that health and care organisations are committed to.
