Dear colleagues,
URBAN REFUGEES has put in place an incubation program for refugee-led organisations (RLOs) in urban areas. It consists of a 12 to 24-month intensive training program delivered on the ground to RLO leaders, coupled with a grant. It aims to reinforce the capacities of these organisations so that they can deliver better services to their community and work efficiently with other stakeholders. We piloted this program in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, with significant success.
We are currently actively looking for the next cohort of RLOs or informal refugee-led groups worldwide that may be interested in the program. We are looking first to gauge interest and, while we will only be able to open a program in one or two countries, the decision about location will be based on the applications that we receive.
If you have knowledge of or are involved in an RLO that may be interested, please forward them this online application form ( https://goo.gl/forms/i64YrmGaYAC4av7G2 ) where you will also find an FAQ about the program or send us an email with their contact details at [log in to unmask]
Thank you very much for your help, and best regards,
