GEC Circle Member Event: Changing the Narrative: Beyond The Welcome Posters - Challenging Hate and Building Belonging for Children Seeking Asylum

 
 

Join us for a free 90 minute online event for educators, on Wednesday January 28th from 4pm to 5.30pm UK time.

This title is intended to be strong, clear and unapologetic. 

This session will 

  • directly address the xenophobic, racist and Anti-Muslim hate prevalent in many of our communities and 

  • focus on a range of concrete actions you can take that go beyond a welcome poster in the foyer! 

Hear from 3 powerful speakers and leave with practical ways to change your school;

  • Kate Hart - Bradford Schools of Sanctuary,

  • A. M Dassu - Author of Boy, Everywhere, Fight Back, Kicked Out, Boot it and many more incredible books

  • Springboard Youth Academy - newly arrived supporting children and young people.

This event is rooted in Project FREE's Statement of Purpose : 

Project FREE is working for a more connected society, free from ‘identity’ based discrimination, prejudice, harassment and violence. By bringing people together to meet and take part in shared creative, collaborative learning experiences we seek to build connections across lines of perceived difference, break down misconceptions of ‘others’ and demonstrate how diversity is strength.
