  began in 2020 as a collaborative project between the Cambridge Sociology 
 Department\, Maggie Semple’s I-Cubed consultancy\, and Britain’s leadi
 ng Black newspaper\, The Voice\, resulted in the largest survey ever under
 taken of contemporary Black British perspectives on 16 different areas of 
 social\, political\, cultural and economic life. More than 10\,000 respond
 ents participated in a 100 question survey designed through a careful proc
 ess of focus group refinement. These data were supplemented by an extensiv
 e interview set and together the results of the Black British Voices study
  have enabled a unique array of insights into Black British life today. Pu
 blished last September\, and launched in Parliament at a reception hosted 
 by MP Abena Oppong-Asare\, the Black British Voices Report documents this 
 remarkable project and its key findings. Both the Report and the dataset o
 n which it is based can be downloaded on the project website here: https:/
 /www.bbvp.org/\n\nIn this seminar\, lead BBVP researcher Dr Kenny Monrose 
 will give an account of the project’s aims\, objectives and methods\, as
  well as offering reflections on the many challenges faced in research of 
 this kind. Together with other members of the BBVP\, Dr Monrose will also 
 consider the importance of the project’s main findings\, and the implica
 tions these have for future research both here at Cambridge and elsewhere.
