Towards Intersectional and Anti-Racist Career Guidance
British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, v50 n4 p577-589 2022
Many researchers have drawn attention to the importance of intersectionality and anti-racism in career guidance, but literature thus far contains few practical examples of how to go about dismantling ethnic and racial normativities that shape educational and labour market transitions. The aim of this article is to deepen the understanding of anti-racist and intersectional career guidance by presenting the results of a study which analysed 22 interviews with counsellors, who work among ethnic and/or racialised minorities and recognise a need to tackle societal inequalities. The study gives examples of critical practices as well as underlines the importance of mainstreaming intersectionality and the advocacy on behalf of oppressed minorities in the guidance practices and ethical guidelines of the profession.
