To work with our local councils to tackle racial discrimination and disadvantage;
To work with the ‘public sector’ to make full use of the positive duty under the Equality Act 2010;
To work with the local private sector through a balance of advocacy and law enforcement and the promotion of the business case for racial equality;
To seek to change public attitudes in order to make racial discrimination socially unacceptable;
To ensure that our work is well informed by close contact with local racial minority communities and to assist in building their capacity to tackle racial discrimination and disadvantage;
To monitor/evaluate the impact of public bodies on racial minority communities.
Fundamental to that work is the need to operate at a strategic level with the recognition that focused involvement in targeted areas assists in the arguments and the development of improved practices. To achieve this TREC has embarked on a number of exercises, which has given rise to specialist areas of work within the organisation.
