About NCADC Train-the-Trainer seminars
In 2005, NCADC started giving workshops on how to set up an anti-deportation campaign which has helped enable communities to build up their own capacity to establish campaigns. Over 1,500 people have attended the NCADC workshops - many new campaigns have been established and the "community of resistance" has swelled as a result. But it's still not nearly enough to meet the needs of those facing deportation who need advice about establishing anti-deportation campaigns.
With help from Barrow Cadbury , NCADC set up the "Train-the-Trainer" project to train and support people to hold their own anti-deportation campaign workshops in their communities.

Who Train-the-Trainer seminars are aimed at
* Anyone who intends to hold anti-deportation campaign workshops or "talks" on anti-deportation campaigning within their communities ;
* Asylum seekers and others facing deportation
