An Introduction to Working with Refugees and People with Lived Experience
Against the backdrop of divisive narratives, restrictive asylum policies and barriers to solidarity, the wellbeing of refugees and sanctuary seekers, their rights and their pathways to integration are increasingly under threat.
If you are wondering what can we do as individuals and communities – faith and secular organisations, local groups and refugee charities, researchers and people with lived experience – to support sanctuary seekers and volunteers in these difficult times, then this is the course for you.
This is an invitation to join a collaborative space to learn and share ideas about becoming better hosts, advocates and allies.
- How do we understand our own motivations and counteract hostility and fear with hospitality and social justice?
- How do we build connections with people with lived experience and co-develop inclusive campaigns, networks and initiatives?
Our 3-week online course will give you space and support to explore religious and secular stories, practices and campaigns about hospitality, collaboration and resilience. You will examine your own approaches and hear about inspiring projects to develop new partnerships.
