City of Sanctuary UK has introduced a new programme “designed to support people who may have little or no previous campaigning experience to recognise their power in making change, to speak up for refugee rights and to supercharge efforts to build welcoming and compassionate communities”.
The programme consists of a 1.5 hour webinar and a handbook with information, resources and exercises. It is designed to help you learn how to:
- Counter hostile rhetoric
- Engage with MPs and candidates
- Mobilise your friends, family and the wider community
- Safely challenge misinformation
The next webinar takes place on 5 February 2024, 18:00-19:30.
You can download the handbook from the City of Sanctuary website.
