Notice Information

Notice Title

Anti-Racism Action Plan

Notice Description

Liverpool City Council is looking to appoint a consultant agency to help develop an anti-racism action plan for the council, aligned to its equality objectives 2024-28. This action plan will support the council on its journey to becoming an anti-racist organisation and will need to identify areas for improvement and action across the council as a whole. It will focus primarily on how the council works, with separate but connected work on community cohesion, hate crime and areas of recovery related to the recent civil unrest and violence. The action plan should have measurable outputs and outcomes which can be clearly communicated and reported on. This action plan must be developed in an inclusive manner, engaging with appropriate stakeholders, service users, elected members and employees. It must build on lived experience and seek credible support from an external organisation to help the council navigate the development of the action plan in an appropriate way.
