Key Aims:

- To enhance the lives of migrant families by providing opportunities for engagement with policy issues affecting them, including migration and integration policy and equality issues (race, gender, ability, sexuality)
- To facilitate sustainable engagement between migrant families, statutory and third sector organisations to extend public debate on how this impacts on lived experience
- To create a training programme for migrant advocacy organizations, to be shared through a short film and toolkit for future use by other groups.
