Details

This report is in response to Wendy Williams' 'Windrush Lessons Learned Review', which was published on 19 March 2020. In particular, it addresses Williams' Recommendation 6, which states that the Home Office must ensure that 'all its existing and new staff learn about the history of the UK and its relationship with the rest of the world, including Britain's colonial history, the history of inward and outward migration and the history of black Britons'.

This is a research report commissioned by the Home Office in response to a Windrush recommendation but does not represent government policy and the views included in it are those of the author.

It was originally written for Home Office officials and is now being made available to the public.
