The People and Communities project will engage mainly Syrian Refugee families (but also include Asylum seeker families or individuals) in a series of initiatives that will support of a process of connecting with the wider community in relation to Integration, capacity building as ‘Community champions’ and an additional focus on personal development to become role models as inter-community educators.

 

Activities will take place at the Victoria Park Pavilion ‘Community Hub’.  This venue will be used as a fixed base for supporting a process of transformation; starting on a basis and challenging in the local context, that Syrian refugee families are in danger of ‘Self-Polarisation’ due to misinformation, false expectations and a lack of trust with the established sector.
