Racism, one of the many forms of prejudice, is a Global issue and it varies from one region to the other. Recent incidents in the USA have shone a light on a level of racism that has shocked and surprised many people across the world. To others, these were not revelations but just everyday life. Many are aware that racism exist yet very little has changed in the last few years and studies have shown that racism is on the rise. Most incidents of racism are not reported and, as a result they go unnoticed. There is no way to conceptualise its scale or prevalence in any given category or within a particular demographic. The only way to effectively monitor and measure levels of racism is by implementing a standardised process for recording incidents. Our objective is to build a platform that provides a standardised process for data gathering, archiving, and reporting on incidents of racism.  

Our mission is to allow any person that is a witness or has a personal experience of racism, to report it anonymously. Our database will gather the reported information and produce reports and analysis of incidents of racism across the world.

Our solution is based around a platform that allows any person to easily log the details of an instance of racism in real time. The information can be logged anonymously and will be entered via an online form that gives an option to provide details of every individual case. The menu will guide users through options to select from a range of categories based on the specific situation. We are still in the early stages of the company formation and we are looking for volunteers to develop our platform.

Racistat is in the early stage of development as a company and we are in need of volunteers with a range of skillsets.  The roles required will be posted on our website  and Facebook  page.
