Join Our Research, Your Experience Matters!
Your voice matters, Black women and girls . Join our research studies and contribute to raising awareness about issues that affect you. By sharing your experiences and perspectives, you can shape the discourse and make a difference.
The intersectional experiences and nuances of Black women and girls in the UK are often overlooked and underrepresented in research. This lack of attention reinforces inequities and marginalisation, and perpetuates the systemic barriers and stereotypes faced by Black women and girls. Cultural sensitivity is crucial in our community-based research, which will centre Black women and girls and take into account the intersections of race, gender, and other social identities shaping their experiences. This approach amplifies the voices of those who have historically been marginalised and neglected – and will help to better understand and address the unique challenges faced by Black women and girls.
