The Green Party of England and Wales (GPEW) Racism Policy Working Group (PWG) is where we develop policy for GPEW to tackle racism, both outwith and within.

All GPEW Members are invited to the Racism PWG Annual General Meeting (AGM).  This will be on Teams on Tue 22 Sep 2026 from 6.30 - 7.30pm UK time (18.30-19.30 BST / UTC+1).  Please register so that we can send you the Teams link in September.

The AGM will elect a new Convenor and Secretary for the Racism PWG coming 12 months.

A message from Hamza Egal, Chair, Racism Policy Working Group, Global Majority Greens:

This is not a talking shop. Over the last two years we have built, fought for and passed the Green Party’s Anti-Racism Platform. We moved anti-racism from warm words about diversity to a political programme that confronts racism as a question of power, institutions and structures.

Now comes the harder part: making it real.

If you believe racism cannot be solved by diversity statements and unconscious bias training; if you believe we have to confront institutional racism, Islamophobia, Antisemitism, the hostile environment, colonialism, economic injustice, surveillance, Palestine and the structures that reproduce racial inequality — then we want you involved.

We need people prepared to do the work. To write policy. To challenge power. To organise. To scrutinise our own Party as seriously as we scrutinise government. And above all, to make sure the Anti-Racism Platform we fought so hard to pass is implemented, measured and enforced — not quietly put on a shelf.

Tuesday 22 September. 6:30 - 7.30pm. Online.

Come and join us.

We have already changed the Party’s policy.

Now we change the institution.
