Welcome to the Coalition for Racial Equality and Rights (CRER)
Formerly known as Glasgow Anti Racist Alliance (GARA), CRER is focused on helping eliminate racial discrimination and harassment, and promoting racial justice across Glasgow/Scotland. Over the years, CRER has had a key role in advocating, campaigning and influencing development to promote racial equality. It has been effective in responding to a broad range of interests needed to make an impact on deep-rooted issues and respond to communities needs. CRER has over ten years’ experience of anti-racist work spanning, amongst other things, youth empowerment, community engagement, pioneering research, as well as in helping to mainstream race equality across Glasgow / Scotland’s public sector.
In its work, CRER takes a rights-based approach, promoting all the relevant international, regional and national human rights and equality conventions and pieces of legislation.
This website is packed full with information on our aims and objectives; what we do; the services we provide; the projects we run; the events that we both organise and run; our publications; the work of our partners and much much more!!!
“All human beings are born free and equal, without any distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, nation or social origin, property, birth or other status.”
