Anti-Discriminatory Practice training

Provided by Children in Wales Mike Mainwaring

Target Audience: Social Work Teams / Providers / Carers

One-day course

Social workers occupy positions of power and influence in their role. Anti-discriminatory practice is an attempt to eradicate discrimination from our own practice and to uphold social justice principles.

The training will use various methods, including games, exercises, questionnaires, films, lived experience, participants professional practise and case studies to examine bias, unconscious bias and ways of working to minimise these biases.

Participants will have a greater knowledge of themselves, their practice and how they can develop to ensure better anti-discriminatory practice with their service users.

Aims:

  • How do our attitudes, beliefs and experience impact practice
  • Service user experiences of exclusion, disempowerment and discrimination
  • The differences between Prejudice, Discrimination and Hate Crime
  • Unconscious bias and assumptions
  • Structural social work
  • Explore forms of marginalisation and inequality - poverty/social exclusion
  • Explore the Equality Act, Protected Characteristics, Public Service Duty and what this means in practice
