With that in mind, social workers must understand cultural and sub-cultural differences and preferences without homogenising the people they work with. The author uses ‘minoritised ethnic groups’ as a preferred term based on her own identity, however she appreciates that those referred to may have their own preferred terms. The contention for appropriate language around Black, Asian, Mixed ethnic and Other minoritised groups is acknowledged. In this model, social workers are encouraged to acknowledge the existence of bias, engage in de-biasing nudges, internal conversations and reflexive processes that support challenging bias, utilise cognitive resources towards de-biasing, and change and determine proportionate decisions. It recognises that the process of assessing prospective adopters is complex and offers strategies to de-bias. The BRAC 2eD model for de-biasing is introduced to support adoption assessments of individuals and families from minoritised ethnic groups. In this article, the author argues that these barriers arise from cognitive bias which affects decision-making in adoption.
Such barriers have led to a reluctance to adopt and a lack of trust in the adoption system.
