Our strategy

Involving the community and collaborating with its members are cornerstones of efforts to improve the relationship between the Government and its communities. Multicultural communities across Britain have faced challenging decisions about how to rebuild the disconnect felt between members of the community and the Government. 

Members of the community would like to have a voice, an active role and decide what happens in their communities.

Globalisation effect: in the process of accelerating and building economies, the interaction and integration among people, companies, and governments worldwide has seen profound changes in community structures. These changes will continue to have societal impact particularly within a multicultural society such as Britain. For many, this process has been overwhelming and has left them with a sense of losing control.

Socio-economic factors: common issues arising from the integration of multiculturalism such as housing, education, healthcare, language, religion and poverty have been on the rise and have created a divide within communities. The impact of this divide has seen the rise of a populist right which claims to speak for the ordinary people to the exclusion of others. 

The trend around culture, national identity, integration and parental involvement in government decision making processes relating to the family nucleus has fundamentally changed. 

Previous reports suggested that integration within Britain was moving in a positive direction however, this change has negatively impacted the progress we believed we were seeing in the early years. Britons of all races have become distinctly disconnected with each other, the Government and law enforcement services such as the police. With ongoing local and national issues regarding inequality brought to the public consciousness and conversation by the Black Lives Matter movement.

ACC is committed to achieving its mission and vision for healthier multicultural communities in the UK through four strategic objectives:

• Raising public awareness and engagement.
