This training is an introduction to intercultural communication, cultural diversity and migrant rights and entitlements. It is ideal for organisations who want to bring about institutional change, to improve and develop the way that they work, especially for those who have front-line engagement with people from migrant communities and would like to expand their knowledge base. The training aims to equip the participants with the necessary knowledge to work effectively supporting clients from migrant communities
The first full-day involves sessions on individual staff development as well as techniques enabling participants to devise tangible and implementable actions in their work-place. It is a very interactive day with exercise based learning. Issues explored will include intercultural communication, layers of culture, stereotyping, and a deeper understanding of how migrants circumstances may affect their interaction with service providers.
The second day (half day) will explain the different categories of immigration statuses in Ireland and their corresponding rights and entitlements in terms of access to employment, education, social welfare, family reunification and application for naturalization.
The training will be delivered in collaboration with practitioners, caseworkers, our clients and other local community organisations. Specific training for schools, youth groups and service providers for young people is also available on request.
