The inspiring theme for Black History Month 2024, in the United Kingdom is ‘Reclaiming Narratives’. This theme encourages shining a spotlight on the untold stories, the unsung heroes, and the everyday individuals from African, Caribbean and other black communities, who have made an indelible impact on our communities and on society at large.
One of the most exciting aspects of Reclaiming Narratives is its potential to inspire and educate the next generation. In schools, universities, and cultural institutions, this theme offers a fresh perspective on Black history. Throughout Black History Month 2024, a range of events, discussions, and educational activities will be taking place across the country, all focused on Reclaiming Narratives. BIOS would like to encourage you to join the conversations. You are invited to save the date and join the Chief AHP Officers’ spotlight conversation below.
