description "This report presents findings from research commissioned by the Department for Work and Pensions, designed to examine positive action labour market policies in Europe and North America. Performed by Dr Ravinder Dhami, Prof Tariq Modood and Prof Judith Squires at Bristol University the research comprises a desktop literature review and qualitative interviews with policy makers, internationally respected academics and other key actors. Specifically the report: # reviews positive action labour market policies in Europe, United States of America and Canada; # explores how these policies were implemented and identifies which organisations were involved in the development of policies; # establishes whether and in what respects these policies have been deemed to be successful in improving ethnic minority employment rates and social mobility; and # identifies those lessons learnt and the possibility/desirability of adapting similar policies to the United Kingdom."
