EMBRACE specialist group: About our group
Formed in the wake of the events of 2020, EMBRACE is a specialist group looking at race and ethnicity in the IT industry.
Across the industry there are countless statistics that highlight race as a blocker to opportunity. The shared stories succinctly personalise the issues and provide evidence there is a lot of work to be done.
EMBRACE @ BCS will work to make the IT profession anti-racist by supporting BCS and external initiatives and highlighting narratives that aim to help eliminate racial bias within tech, thus making it diverse and inclusive to everyone
