Professional development tours are delivered for groups and individuals who wish to learn more about the refugee experience and how they can better support new arrivals in their respective fields. These include health professionals, community workers, teachers and others working with refugees and people seeking asylum. Group bookings are also available for workplaces and teams wanting to improve their workplace diversity and inclusion or undertake professional development training.
Tours are delivered by guides with lived experiences from a range of refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds.
Professional development tours provide interactive, experiential learning and will help you:
- Develop your understanding of clients/community members from refugee backgrounds and their skillsets.
- Improve your services to clients from refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds.
- Hear from local refugee and asylum seeker community members as they share their stories of settlement in Australia.
