Breaking stereotypes, influencing integration policies, and promoting real representation in the decision-making processes
Awareness and Advocacy Work
Informing and calling Attention to issues that directly impact migrants and refugees and raising awareness of their perspective and lived experience
Not only are we based in the EuroMed region, but most of our team members and volunteers are from the region and we believe we can bring in a new perspective on intercultural dialogue because we work on Intra and intercultural dialogue from a migratory and gender equality perspective.
We, as Kudwa and as the president Razan, have participated in the most recent virtual marathon on Intercultural Dialogue and we realized that we, as an organization and as people, fit perfectly within the network and we can provide value as much as we can get.
