This workshop is part of the Activism and Advocacy workshop series
The Irish Refugee Council and Oxfam Ireland will hold a series of workshops over the coming year aiming to share advocacy skills and policy knowledge, hold discussions about how we can most effectively work together as grassroots activists and activists, and open a space for networking and meeting more people who also want to advance the rights of migrants including refugees. We have designed workshops on four topics - these topics were chosen by participants at a workshop we facilitated in January on activism and advocacy. We're looking forward to learning from each other and we hope we'll all work together more closely in the future and support each other's projects.
