We are not at square One
There are now multicultural environmental activists and experts, new ethnic minority led groups with their own focus, doing their own thing. However there is still a long way to go. Partnership, discussion forums, representation on boards, committees and working groups , purposeful developmental funding and new ideas are now all on the agenda. Consultancy and training are very much on the agenda too to plug the gaps.
