The celebration is an opportunity to acknowledge and applaud the commitment, efforts, progress, achievements and triumphs of individuals, groups and organisations across minority ethnic communities in Scotland.

Our 'unsung heroes', particularly young people, parents, carers and educators who motivate social justice and challenge inequality are at the heart of SAMEE and the Recognition and Appreciation Awards. Our guests, sponsors and particularly our nominees play a critically important role in creating inclusive social, learning and working environments across Scotland. Their activities support and empower minority ethnic young people and parents, improve life chances for children and young people by tackling disadvantage and strengthen the BME education workforce.

We offer our heartfelt congratulations to the award winners of 2022. We would like to extend our deepest appreciation to our strategic partners and sponsors for their continued support and allyship.
