Monitoring Activism

Conference
2017 Community Service Group Conference
Date
10 November 2016
Decision
Carried

The National Black Member’s Committee welcomes the data it received from the UNISON RMS membership database in 2012. The data shows that there are fewer than average Black activists, but more white activists.

The categories for Caribbean, African, Asian, Indian (UK other) needs to be updated and used to encourage Black members to become more active and identify their ethnicity.

This Conference therefore calls on the Community Service Group Executive to work with the National Black Members Committee to develop a strategy to encourage the participation of Black members in the Community Service group.
