Anti-Racist Wales Action Plan

Published on 5 November, 2024.

The Anti-racist Wales Action Plan (ArWAP), published in June 2022, highlighted the deeply rooted racial inequalities experienced by Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic people in Wales. It focuses on the realities of institutional and structural racism, emphasising that ethnic minority people are disproportionally disadvantaged at nearly every level of every system. By acknowledging this uncomfortable truth, ArWAP urges Wales’s Public, Private and Third Sectors to confront the extensive nature of racial inequalities and recognise the often-unintentional advantages experienced by certain groups. It calls for the courage, as a nation, to confront systemic injustices and work collectively towards meaningful change.
