For Refugees
Our Learning & Integration Unit (LIU) in the past few years has provided learning, development and employment opportunities for refugees and asylum seekers. Unfortunately due to funding problems, the service provided through this unit have now ended. We are currently reviewing what training services we will provide in this area and will update this section as soon as any new training is available.
In the meantime, please refer to our events diary for training and seminars provided by other agencies.
For Refugee Community Organisations
In house training
The Community Development Team (CDT) runs free in-house and London-wide training for refugee community organisations (RCOs). If your organisation needs specific training to be delivered at your premises, we can customise our in house training programme to suit your needs.
London wide training programme
The CDT London-wide programme is designed to support and develop the work of London based RCOs. Our most recent London wide programme included: an introduction to influencing public policy, an introduction to family law, working with unaccompanied children, developing women’s services, annual accounts and auditing, and how to develop a successful fundraising strategy. The next programme is being developed. We will update this page as soon as it is available.
Seminars
The CDT organises regular seminars to update refugee organisations on issues relevant to their work and to give organisations an opportunity to network and exchange experience with other refugee groups. Our seminars also aim to develop awareness among statutory and voluntary bodies and other agencies of the need and impact of services provided by RCOs. Previous seminars have focused on funding issues pertinent to RCOs, gender related issues, and changes in immigration and asylum policy. Our programme for seminars is currently being updated, we will update this page as soon as it is available.
