OUR CAMPAIGN GROUPS

COLLECTIVE PUNISHMENT

Established in September 2022, the Collective Punishment Campaign (CPC) was formed by an Alumni of the Fellowship in 2016. Our aim is to raise awareness of and tackle the impact of parental imprisonment on families and in particular children, in the UK.

UNDER THE UMBRELLA

Under The Umbrella believes in equal access to healthcare for everyone. Urgent anti-racist action is needed as is equal and gender-specific healthcare. At Under the Umbrella, we believe this should be the norm and it is achievable.

QUEER ORGANISING FORUM

The Queer Organising Forum are a group of young people organising around solidarity and liberation. They aim to fight ignorance towards the Queer community.

CHOKED UP

CHOKED UP is a campaign led by four Advocacy Members from the class of 2021. They are campaigning to enshrine the right for all to breathe clean air, especially marginalised communities who are disproportionately affected by air pollution in London.

THE HALO COLLECTIVE

THE HALO COLLECTIVE is a group of TAA members working to de-stigmatise afro-textured hair in workplaces and schools. Since its launch in Jan 2021, almost 1000 schools and businesses across the country, including M&S, L’Oreal and more, have adopted the HALO code. The code outlines a policy for institutions to commit to ending hair discrimination.

MY UNCLE IS NOT PABLO ESCOBAR

MUINPE: LatinXcluded is demanding better representation of the Latinx community in British society. They won commitments from Lambeth Council, the Arts Council, and King’s College London to add a Latinx category in their HR forms, and are now partnering with Citizens UK to lobby for a change on the national census that would recognise the more than 200,000 Latinx people currently living in the UK. They recently raised awareness of their work through the sold out performance of My Uncle is Not Pablo Escobar at the Brixton Theatre.

LAMBETH CLT

In 2018, cross-cohort members leading our Affordable Housing Campaign achieved a significant milestone in their campaign. The Lambeth CLT secured a commitment from Lambeth Council, and a £5m piece of land in Brixton from Transport for London to build the first Community Land Trust in South London - genuinely and permanently affordable homes
which can be bought by young people and members of the community.

THE VOICES PROJECT

The #VoicesProject is an anti-racist, critical and inclusive teaching resource as well as a listening programme in schools. The project centres voices that aren't usually heard in the classroom using oral geographies as a way to learn with and across different communities. This project came out of RE.ROOTED, another TAA Campaign for a decolonised curriculum.
