RESILIENT GWENT

Challenging hate speech and radical ideologies by promoting shared values.

WHO ARE WE?


We’re a small, friendly, non-profit organisation based in the centre of Newport, South Wales.  Our pilot ‘Schools Project’ is the first of our Resilient Gwent projects that aims to challenge hate speech when it goes beyond the lines of free speech.

WHY ARE WE DIFFERENT?

Some interfaith organisations celebrate the differences between faiths and beliefs in the community.  We challenge hate speech by focusing on their shared values and similarities.

HOW DO WE DO THIS?

By working in partnership with voluntary faith and belief representatives, we offer schools, teachers, and the community a unique service, which includes activities that encourages the learning of all faiths and beliefs and none and promote their shared values.  We also support schools with the Religion, Values and Ethics (RVE) curriculum.

We run workshops for teachers and parents to address their concerns regarding the Religion, Values and Ethics (RVE) curriculum and the Relationships and Sexuality Education (RSE) being taught in schools.

WHAT DON’T WE DO?

We don’t teach religion or compromise the Religion, Values and Ethics (RVE) curriculum.

WHAT’S THE COST?

All our services are free.
