*Note: Refugee here is understood to include anyone with experience of the asylum system.
*Challenges that have all been compounded by Covid-19.
Our first online forum will bring together keynote speakers, including those with lived experience, and professionals, working in key service areas, to collectively solve common challenges facing refugees.
Uniquely, we will provide a space for professionals from four key areas to discuss the challenges and solutions refugees are facing.
Policy and advocacy
Physical and mental health
Education & livelihoods
Service delivery & community inclusion
After brainstorming and analysis, each group will present their key findings and, together with keynote speakers, identify the highest priorities and joint actions.
Each participating organisation commits to coordinated actions and nominates a person responsible for its implementation.
An online platform will be set up to sustain conversations and critically, to monitor actions and linkages agreed at the forum.
