What is Allyship Training?

Many individuals seek to action on issues that do not directly affect them. Whether action is taken on issues relating to gender, race, sexuality or disability, the process of being a good ally is usually more complex than people first assume. Good intentions are not enough. Allyship training helps individuals to understand how to act ethically and safely in order to help others.

What does this training cover?

  • In this training we will explore what is meant by allyship
  • We will examine various case studies: where attempts at allyship have been effective or where it has harmful or performative
  • The training cannot cover every possible scenario, but we will introduce tools for reflective thinking so informed decisions can be made on how to act
  • The training will aid participants to create their own personalised learning plans
