In this webinar discussion, we talk with Dominique Samari and Paul Schmitz, who developed the Racial Equity Toolkit, which is available to download for free from the Collective Impact Forum resource library.
The Racial Equity Toolkit is designed to support backbone staff and partners to operationalize racial equity throughout their collective impact work. Through a mix of personal reflection exercises, conversations, and activities, this toolkit helps teams explore how centering racial equity can advance their strategies, build understanding, strengthen relationships, and support in reaching their collective goals.
In this webinar discussion, we talked about what’s in the toolkit, the ways that teams can explore it to advance their own work. and also answered attendees’ questions about the toolkit.
This session was held on April 18, 2023.
