Promoting refugee agency in humanitarian action

LOCAL SOLIDARITY GROUPS
Local solidarity groups are small local teams, circles or clubs of members from all walks of life, who feel concerned by the humanitarian crisis and its impact on refugees and are united in their shared belief in our common humanity and in solidarity.
They promote refugee agency in humanitarian action by:
-
Creating spaces to exchange and learn on one of the most important global issues of our time and how it affects us all.
-
-
Raising awareness on refugee-led organisations and giving visibility to their initiatives.
-
-
Sharing social capital, expertise and technical skills with partner refugee-led organisations.
-
-
Fundraising to support refugee-led initiatives.
-
-
Networking and developing diverse partnerships to support the activities of the local solidarity group.
Each local solidarity group does things its own way in line with the CALLS Network vision and values and around the four pillars of our mission (link to the About page). Its members determine what to do, which initiatives they wish to undertake and how to implement them.
