| COALITION FOR EQUALITY AND HUMAN RIGHTS MERSEYSIDE, CEHRM | ||||

MNfC, Merseyside Refugee Support Network and Merseyside Council of Faiths, (MCF) have established the Coalition as a Forum of Support for those communities across the Greater Liverpool sub-region who are affected by discrimination and disadvantage. The Coalition, essentially a network of networks, will assist groups and individuals to: The consequence of this partial failure to implement a more robust response to ensure equality is a continuing reluctance for people to come forward when confronted with any form of discrimination and for them to play a full role in the social, cultural and economic life of the community. The Coalition’s engagement will be a hands-on approach in its work with disadvantaged groups and communities and it is recognised that particular and novel opportunities will arise in bringing the different equality strands together in a meaningful way in order to achieve the necessary reduction or banishment of barriers. The essence of the Coalition will be putting people in touch with each other, through practical initiatives, and with agencies to help create a very proactive framework, what we describe above as a network of networks. Secondly the Coalition will not merely support but lead on and create initiatives which assist in building peoples capacity to engage with society as a player on an even playing field. |
