We would like to invite all those who have participated or are interested in Refugee Week to come to the one-day conference that we will be holding on 15th February in central London.
As part of the development of Refugee Week throughout the UK, we are committed to providing a forum where those involved in events can share their experiences and ideas with others. Specifically, the aims of the conference will be to provide participants with an opportunity to:
- Celebrate their achievements with regards to Refugee Week
- Learn from others about models of good practice
- Input further into the future development of Refugee Week
- Discuss issues of concern and future support needs
- Make specific recommendations with regards to Refugee Week 2008
- Enjoy themselves
The day will be very participatory and we hope that people will bring with them information and good examples of what they achieved this year. We will have some keynote speakers and a number of workshops / discussion sessions covering areas such as fundraising, working with the media, working in partnership and making changes through small actions. Conclusions or recommendations from the day will be recorded and shared with participants.
There is no charge for attendance, lunch will be provided and travel costs for members of Refugee Community Organisations can be met (reimbursement will be on a first come first served basis - please call 020 7346 6752 for further details).
The conference is now fully booked. If you would like to be added to a waiting list let us know by downloading this booking form and returning it to us at info@refugeeweek.org.uk with Conference as the subject title.
We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you at the workshop.
