Yasmin was the principal investigator on the TRADE project, which stands for ‘Transmission of experiences of Racism, Anxiety and Depression in families’.
There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.
Discussion points include:
- Definition of racism, what is currently known about the experiences of racism and how the experiences are linked to negative mental and physical health outcomes amongst those exposed.
- Why this area has been largely neglected in the research community within the UK, with most studies coming from the US.
- The bidirectional nature of parent and child experiences of racism with indirect effects impacting mental health and wellbeing in both generations.
- The difficulties in families where parent and child approaches differ in relation to active coping strategies and denial of racism.
- How one might reduce harms when talking about racism with children and young people.
- Protective factors and the importance of social cohesion, safe spaces and education.
- Recommendations for CAMH professionals.
In this series, we speak to authors of papers published in one of ACAMH’s three journals. These are The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry (JCPP); The Child and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMH) journal; and JCPP Advances.
