Despite a widespread recognition of race as a central part of the urban debate, government urban policy has often failed to adequately address this issue. The launch of City Challenge in 1991 acknowledged the need for local people to take part in wide-ranging local partnerships. City Challenge programmes had an important advocacy role for the locality - especially for the area's most disadvantaged residents which would often include its ethnic minority population. This report identifies common patterns and innovations in training provision and business support in City Challenge areas, focusing on minority ethnic participation and assesses the relevance and impact of training and business support for minority ethnic groups. It draws conclusions from the experience of City Challenge to identify good practice in the provision and delivery of training and business support to minority ethnic groups.
