Mix-d: Parenting. Our 1st London based conference for parent / carers

Event Details

This was the first time we had held such an event in London. I think it is fair to say we were all pretty nervous but it went really well. Attendees got the opportunity to ask the questions they rarely get an opportunity to do so.

The main areas we covered were:

Parenting ‘mixed’ children
Changing terminology - What’s in a name?
How to access information, books and resources for children from mixed-race backgrounds.
Developing a positive racial identity for children of mixed-parentage.

Out Terminology chart can be found in the resource section: http://www.mix-d.org/creates/.

What is a Parents Conference?

A half day event for parents/carers to come together as a group share expertise, learn more about appropriate terminology and how to develop positive racial literacy for their child.
