The first-of-its-kind survey will provide data to help increase diversity in the music industry and hold organisations accountable.
Black Lives in Music's (BLiM) anonymous survey covers areas areas including education, racial discrimination, mental health and economics to provide information the organisation can use to support Black musicians.
According to BLiM there is a lack of data around Black musicians' experience: “Organisations are rarely held to account concerning data insights and recommendations.”
"With this information, we can make change happen, together.”
Only 2% of teaching staff at UK conservatoires are from a Black, Asian or minority ethnic background, BLiM notes.
