反种族主义意向声明
绿洲的标志“包容之圈”象征着我们包容的精神. It demands that we do better and do more to break the cycle of racial prejudice and institutional inequality which is endemic in our society. We know that we have an important part to play in dismantling the systems that create and sustain discrimination wherever they exist within 绿洲 and within society.
We are a 社区 transformation movement and organisation made up of many thousands of students, 居民, 社区成员, 工作人员, 志愿者和活动家, 我们的精神是致力于实现彻底的包容, 正义, 和股票. 作为一个运动, 大老板, 学校家庭, 也是社区和住房服务的提供者, we know we must use our voice together to speak out proactively for a more just and inclusive world.
我们是谁，我们做什么, 我们寻求包容所有人——所有信仰的人(或者没有信仰的人), 残疾的人, class, 经济手段, 种族, 性别或性取向. 这根植于我们对基督教故事的深刻理解, 上帝就是爱, 不歧视, 他认为我们所有人都是不同但平等的, 具有丰富的多样性, 同样的值.
因此，我们的愿景和责任不仅仅是不种族主义, 而是积极地、明显地反对种族主义. 我们必须反对种族主义多方面的不公正, 提倡平等的价值观, 股本, 以及社会公正, 挑战压迫的力量, 在个人和系统层面上为所有人提供公平的机会, and make sure that any marginalised groups have representation and are able to influence decision-making through everything that we do. 我们必须确保绿洲的每一个空间，每一所学校, 首页, 社区项目或全球运动——对所有人都是安全的, 是否建立在包容的文化基础上，并为开放和诚实的对话创造空间, 在那里我们倾听彼此，听到所有的声音.
我们的行动计划
我们认识到，光靠语言是不够的，行动比语言更响亮. 我们承认我们需要做出改变的地方——倾听的需要, hear and value all voices within our movement; the need to remove any overt and subtle systems that reduce opportunity or act as barriers to achievement, 领导, or service; and the need to ensure we are an organisation and movement that is continually learning how to become ever more inclusive. 因此，我们承诺在以下领域采取行动，并通过我们的 打破循环运动 (this is not an exhaustive list and simply represents the areas that we are working towards to becoming an anti-racist organisation):
文化与学习
我们将一起学习身份、包容、偏见、种族主义以及如何反压迫. In particular we will educate and equip people across our movement to understand our core story of inclusion and 正义 and to change culture by putting this story into practice. 我们将嵌入促进对身份的理解的发展机会, 文化能力, 建设性的对话, 而反压迫的实践则是基于我们深入而独特的性格形成方法, 绿洲生活习惯. We will encourage all those who are part of the 绿洲 movement to take individual responsibility for their actions and learning, 以及承诺共同做出改变.
听
我们将建立各种声音被倾听和被倾听的制度, 我们可以互相尊重, 开放, 和真诚的对话. In particular we will actively encourage the development of integrated and creative 工作人员 networks across our entire education, 社区, 住房, and 正义 teams; we are developing a 社区 movement forum made up of volunteers, 父母, 居民, and 社区成员 which will meet regularly with our Boards and senior 工作人员 team; and we will develop rich opportunities for youth voice and activism. We will develop approaches that increase diversity and representation at all levels and particularly in decision making spaces. 我们将积极创造机会，实现多种形式的融合.g.(反种族主义、反同性恋恐惧症、性别平等)，以便更好地理解和融合.
表示

We are also developing a range of working groups in the different parts of 绿洲 to ensure that we take action. 作为我们反对种族主义的广泛承诺的一部分, 我们将继续建立创新的“打破循环”网络, 谁与成千上万的老师合作, 学校, and youth workers around the UK as we seek to play our part in influencing the entire education and youth sector to develop inclusive and anti-racist practices.
语言与交流
我们将力求善用语言, 认识到如果不加思考和谨慎地使用它，可能会造成分裂和冒犯. 因为我们的精神是优先考虑身份和归属感, 我们将始终以人的方式与人交往, 而不是标签或分类. We will make every effort to use clear and active language to describe the changes that we wish to see in terms of racial 正义. 我们还将审查我们的出版物, 讲故事, fundraising and campaigning to ensure that we are not stereotyping or removing dignity and agency from people.
就业
We will review and where necessary change our internal practices and procedures to ensure we are consistent, 公平, 并在人们就业的各个阶段与我们开放. 我们将特别考虑在哪里以及如何做招聘广告, 我们如何招聘职位, 以及我们如何创造进步的机会和通往领导的道路. We are working to develop the UK’s first Inclusive Initial Teacher Training scheme to proactively develop a more diverse workforce across the education sector and at all levels of 领导 within 绿洲 Academies.
课程/学习
作为学校和技能提供者, we recognise the critical responsibility that we have to the children and young people that we serve. We will continue to proactively build a school experience and curriculum/ support programmes that support all children and young people to become people of good character who are active and inclusive. We will also review and where necessary change our curriculum and skills programmes to ensure that they are infused with the 绿洲 ethos and are balanced, 代表, 诚实和反思. 除了, we will ensure that within our curriculum/ programmes we are not creating or sustaining a culture that stems from colonialism or systems of oppression. 我们会继续推行我们独特及共融的品格教育计划, 绿洲生活习惯, 创新和全国公认的反种族主义课程设计, 实现, and training that takes place through 绿洲 Academy MediaCityUK and across our family of academies.
政策及实务
我们将检讨我们的政策和程序, 确保他们始终在一种包容的文化中运作, 股本, anti-oppressive实践, 和反种族主义, 拆除任何公开设施, 歧视产生或维持歧视的无意的或微妙的系统.
问责制
按年计算, we will review and measure our progress against these commitments across the entire movement – our education, 住房, 正义, 还有社区工作. We will do this through the learning and accountability structure we are building across our movement including 工作人员 networks, 打破循环小组, 我们的社区运动论坛, 绿洲家族各个部分的工作小组, 以及我们的文化论坛，以便我们采取行动, 听, 一起学习.
