Racist Attacks
and Harassment Multi-Agency Strategy
(RAHMAS)
The RAHMAS partnership is opposed to racism. Each partner is fully committed
to take action to identify and eliminate unlawful racial discrimination,
racist attacks and harassment and to promote good relations between
people of different racial groups.
All partners are fully committed to achieving these aims through
active participation in this strategy and to ensure that we remain
responsive to the changing needs of society.
Each partner will pro-actively encourage an environment both internally
and externally that recognises and respects diversity, challenges
discrimination, as well as inappropriate behaviour or language,
wherever it is encountered.
Each partner will continue to participate actively in a multi-agency
response in dealing with racist incidents that occur, as well as
providing necessary support to the victim when required.
The partners will continue to monitor and review policy and procedures
regularly and will encourage the development of relevant programmes
and good practice.
Each agency will actively participate in an annual review on the
effectiveness of RAHMAS. This will include publication of an annual
report.
