One of the key aims of Awetu, and an ideal that has been fostered from the creation of our organisation is raising the profile of BME experiences and perspectives of mental health. To this end Awetu undertakes a number of different activities which share the goal of raising awareness:

• Attending consultation and policy meetings held by other voluntary, public and private sector organisations and by local and national governmental authorities.

• Sitting on and/or attending community initiatives and forums.
• Supporting research into BME mental health issues.
  (i.e the BE4 Research Project)
• Participating in statutory and voluntary sector policy and planning forum to input the needs of BME people.
