Anti-Racism Data Act
We heard from communities around B.C. that we need to prioritize improving services for people, especially in the areas of education, employment and health.
We’ve heard from many Indigenous and racialized people that they are being left behind because our services weren’t designed with them in mind. The Anti-Racism Data Act has been created to help us conduct research that will identify gaps in our services. This will enable us to make them more accessible and inclusive for everyone.
