We warmly invite you to the "Change the System" Conference, a pioneering event presented by Women Acting in Today's Society in collaboration with Birmingham City University.


Join us on 14th February 2024, at Birmingham City University for a transformative exploration of the challenges faced by survivors of Domestic Abuse within the BAME community.


Unveiling Systemic Barriers:

This Conference brings together survivors, advocates, and experts to shine a spotlight on the pervasive barriers within critical sectors. Through insightful panel discussions, we'll dissect issues in the realms of Police, Housing, Benefits, Crown Prosecution Service, and Legal Aid. Our goal is to not only identify these challenges but to collaboratively devise actionable strategies for change.
