Introducting SPARK Communities

ENAR Foundation is building pan-European professional communities for racialised individuals that offer:

- Virtual meeting spaces for professionals to meet their peers from across Europe.

- Networking and professional development opportunities.

- A space that recognizes your experience and innate skills.

- A space to attract and build new professional opportunities for underrepresented groups in the workplace.

Join the SPARK Teachers community

Under the “SPARK Teachers” name we are working to build a community of teachers who identify as racialised individuals and acknowledge the importance of anti-racism in schools.

By signing up, you are expressing interest in ongoing membership where you commit to active participation. This membership is for individuals only.

A community led by and for racialised individuals

SPARK Teachers is led by Community Chair Mette Toft Nielsen (she/her), an independent consultant focusing on responsible learning processes in Denmark and across Europe.

"I love the combination of my work, focusing on the power of language and discourse, part of this being deconstructing existing unjust power hierarchies and imagining what different futures could look like in our schools, at our workplaces, in the media, and in society at large, and embracing inner work of healing, community building and solidarity."
