CARICUK: Creative Approaches to Race and In/security in the Caribbean and the UK is a year-long collaboration between artists and educators. It aims to transform discussions about race in UK higher education institutions and redefines race as an in/security. This is based on the model of Caribbean In/securities, which sees security and insecurity as perspectival and relational terms that people negotiate in their everyday lives and through creative means. Understanding race as an in/security means that education institutions and black communities will negotiate better outcomes between them, with listening and change on both sides.
