Migrant-focused, and Migrant-led organisations have a wealth of experience and knowledge which is not always available to mainstream advice and support organisations. Training designed and delivered by migrant-facing organisations could support mainstream organisations to be more accessible and effective in supporting migrants. This kind of training could also act as a bridge, building better and more sustainable networks across mainstream and migrant-facing orgs.
Our Migrant Lived Experience Panel has designed a new training offer in intercultural communication for public-facing staff working with diverse service users, clients and communities in Scotland.
The training is:
- tailored to suit the realities of public-facing work and the needs of public sector, third sector, service delivery and community organisations in Scotland.
- delivered by people with both lived experience of migration to Scotland and professional experience of public-facing work in third and public sector organisations in Scotland.
- available free of charge as an online pilot offer during March only!
