In the context of the new National Action Plan Against Racism, this meeting will have a specific focus on the national consultation Towards a National Action Plan Against Racism for Ireland.

An independent Anti-Racism Committee was appointed by the government in 2020 to develop a new National Action Plan Against Racism for Ireland. A national consultation was launched on April 21^st to feed into the plan. The consultation runs until July 14^th.  Anastasia Crickley, who is a member of the National Anti-Racism Committee, will give an update on the work of the Anti-Racism Committee and an overview of the committee’s Interim Report.

The remainder of the session will focus on a discussion on priority areas for the Plan which can be developed into a submission.
