Equity Charter Charles Kwaku-Odoi DL MFPH HARD TO REACH 🙄

We're working on resources to help people find words to challenge overheard bigoted comments firmly but politely, & also ones that seek to excuse/ perpetuate bigotry e.g 'I don't see colour'.

Are there any comments or phrases you hear that we should address?

Equity Charter Rush Miah “I have friends who are XYZ”

“I don’t see colour” is a phrase that really irritates me

Equity Charter It’s just banter

Thank you to all who have followed and signed. Our goal is to convene the UK digital health community and to co-develop an equity charter with common standards we can all agree on and coalesce around. If that interests you please let us know.

We've been a little quiet lately, but we've got some big plans. Next week we'll be publishing our list of organisational signatories - we have some big names from the NHS, professional bodies, & industry. It's not too late to sign! 👇🏾

If you see bad behaviour, challenge it

If you see someone on the wrong end of bad behaviour, support them

If someone seeks your support for their bad behaviour, withdraw it

Be an ally and a champion

Many orgs representing informatics professionals & the tech industry have remained silent since the Guardian report (11/3) on TPP's CEO & comments made re Diane Abbott MP
Anti-racism only goes so far in tech

We came across this tweet which feels very timely. Allyship is hard, & it's an active choice. The open letter & the Equity Charter are not about an individual, nor about 'politics'. This is about human rights & basic dignity. Sign here: equitycharter.digital
