BAME Volunteers Required

Do you work in Energy and identify as ‘BAME’?
I am developing a STEM activity for schools to increase awareness and spark curiosity about climate change, the environment and energy amongst students.   The activity will highlight the roles that BAME engineers and scientists play in the journey to Net Zero in a fun and interactive way.
The intention is also to boost awareness of the educational backgrounds and routes to the roles of BAME engineers and scientists and provide inspiration of future careers.
I am looking for volunteers who want to motivate young people to further consider the energy field.  If you would be interested in being involved or would like more information please contact me!

    Phrases like 'Positive BAME role models can only be positive step for our engagement with young people' no one here would disagree with.


    But that is not the same thing as specifically excluding 'white' (or non-BAME) from contribution. That is both illegal and not inline with the IET strategy.


    I email lou P, reported the post and absolutely nothing .. I can only conclude it is fully supported.


    I wonder if I made a request for support, but only from White Heterosexual non-Catholics I would find that removed ... essentially the same request, just excluding a different sub-set.


    I shall remove myself permanently now from the forums - I don't do all this woke piffle - I want excellence in engineering and abhor anyone that excludes anyone from contributing to that
