The document summarizes the findings of a needs assessment conducted with Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) communities in Brighton and Hove. It found that BME residents face issues with housing, employment, and educational attainment. Specifically, BME residents were more likely to rent privately and less likely to own homes, and certain ethnic groups had unemployment rates twice the city average. BME children and young people also tended not to reach their full potential compared to their White British peers. The steering group conducting the assessment is prioritizing work on these issues of housing, employment, and education, and engaging the community for input.

Initial Findings from Community Survey on Housing NeedsMaileen Hamto
Presented by RNR Consulting at Portland Housing Bureau Community Forum (Portland, Oregon). Illustrates housing needs and initial findings from comprehensive community survey.
On Tuesday, 8 December 2020, Michal Polakowski, EMN Ireland/Economic and Social Research Institute, presented the following slideshow at the webinar 'Supporting integration: access to citizenship in Ireland and the EU.'

Integrating immigrants and their children is a major policy concern for many OECD countries. Immigrants represent a sizeable segment of our population: more than one in five persons in the OECD is either foreign-born or native-born with at least one immigrant parent - and this share is expected to grow further. Yet, the outcomes of immigrants lag behind those with native-born parents in all major areas of integration, including the labour market, education, and social inclusion. In addition, immigrants tend to gather in urban and capital city-regions: two-thirds of the foreign-born population in the OECD live in urban areas on average, while asylum seekers seem to be more evenly distributed. Tackling barriers to integration is essential to ensure social cohesion and the acceptance of further immigration by the host country population. Achieving it needs to adopt a territorial approach to take into account the variety of local situations and build appropriate coordination mechanisms with local governments, in charge of 40% of public spending and 60% of public investment on average in the OECD.
This session will draw on key lessons from the OECD’s work on integration and summarise the main challenges and good policy practices to support the lasting integration of immigrants and their children. It will provide parliamentarians with facts and evidence on integration outcomes, as well as a number of good practice policy approaches. It will focus on the specific integration challenges faced by persons who migrate for family reasons – the single most important motive for migration in OECD countries – and on good practices to manage integration at the local level.

RFP for Reno's Community Assistance CenterThis Is Reno
Property appraisals completed in May for downtown Reno’s Community Assistance and Triage Centers (CAC) reveal that repairing the buildings to bring them back into service would cost an estimated $10.1 million—nearly four times the amount previously reported by city staff.
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
Monitoring Health for the SDGs - Global Health Statistics 2024 - WHOChristina Parmionova
The 2024 World Health Statistics edition reviews more than 50 health-related indicators from the Sustainable Development Goals and WHO’s Thirteenth General Programme of Work. It also highlights the findings from the Global health estimates 2021, notably the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on life expectancy and healthy life expectancy.
3. - Local Black and Minority Ethnic communities felt that the
council and other public agencies in the city didn’t fully
understand who the community were and what some of
the problems they were facing might be.
- The council and other agencies listened to this and
identified some funding to undertake some research.
- BMECP (the Black and Minority Ethnic Community
Partnership) worked with the community to set up a
steering group to over-see the project.
- The Steering Group includes representatives of BME
community groups in the city as well as the council, police
and NHS.

• The Steering Group has prioritised working on issues related to
Housing, Employment and Education
• It has held events to ensure the views of BME people are fed into
the Council’s new Housing Strategy.
• Our Chair is now a member of the Council’s ‘Closing the Gap’
working group. This group is working on a number of projects to
reduce the gap between attainment levels of BME pupils and their
White British peers.
• It has presented the findings to the City Employment and Skills
Steering Group and they have agreed to have a focus on skills and
employment support for BME communities in their next action plans.
• We are now organising community events to feed into the schools
work and look at what services the BME community would like to
use and improve.

Editor's Notes
Our Needs Assessments are about understanding our communities through population data and other statistics but the important work comes in taking action to address any concerns arising from the findings.
Our first job was to undertake some research using all of the available statistics in the city – this is called a ‘Snapshot’. These these are some of our key findings.
Brighton & Hove’s Black & minority ethnic population is increasing. Our best data about the number of people in Brighton & Hove from different ethnic backgrounds is from the official census that is carried out every ten years.
At the time of the 2001 census 12 per cent of our city’s population (29,683 people) were from a BME background. By the 2011 census 20 per cent were (53,351 people).
Our BME population’s age profile is younger than our White UK/ British population; 1/5 of our children and young people are from a BME background.
At the time of the census a quarter (24 per cent) of households in the city with more than one person living in them include people of different ethnic backgrounds.
This is significantly higher than the 13 per cent found in both the South East and England and is the third highest proportion outside of London behind Oxford and Cambridge.
At Key Stage 1 the gap for EAL pupils was 12 per cent for writing, 11 per cent for reading and four per cent for Maths
At Key Stage 2 the EAL gap was six per cent in 2012
Only 30 per cent of Black or Black British pupils who were eligible for free school meals met the expected levels in English and Maths at Key Stage 2 in 2012.
Just 16.7 per cent achieved five or more GCSEs at grade C or above in 2012, including English and Maths.
Across all BME groups lower proportions lived in owned, or part owned, homes than White UK/British residents at the time of the 2011 Census
Black & minority ethnic residents had an unemployment rate of nine per cent at the time of the 2011 census, compared to the city average of 7.3 per cent amongst economically active residents. All non-White ethnic groups had unemployment rates higher than the city average. In fact four groups had unemployment rates of at least twice the city average; Black African, 18.7 per cent, White & Black African, 16.9 per cent, White & Black Caribbean, 15.9 per cent and Gypsy or Irish Traveller, 15.3 per cent.
