Church must overhaul recruitment to tackle racism, report finds

April 22, 2021

Shortlists for senior Church of England roles must include at least one ethnic minority candidate, a taskforce set up in the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests has recommended.

The Archbishops’ Anti-Racism Taskforce has made 47 recommendations to improve diversity and stamp out racism in the Church. These include annual reporting on recruitment, mandatory training to embed anti-racism practice, and the appointment of full-time racial justice officers in every diocese for a five-year term.
