Here are a few ways you can support refugees this #newyear and make it a resolution to continue being a City of Sanctuary to many forcibly displaced individuals.
A year ago we launched The Art of Belonging pledge- Nottingham’s cultural, voluntary+community sector coming together to welcome asylum seekers and refugees in our city. So proud of the year we have had -looking forward to the plans we have for future collaborations @UoNSoE
Are you thinking ahead to the new year and all the collaborations you'd like to get started in the field of refugee education?
Join our networking event on 13th January to get inspired and connected with colleagues from around the world to make it happen!

🎉Refugee Week 2025 Theme Announcement: Community as a Superpower.
Communities can bring people together. Bridging divides and offering support. Spaces of resilience and places for healing.
This Refugee Week everyone is invited to spend time with friends and build new connections in and beyond our neighbourhoods. From communal meals and open air film screenings, to football matches and music making, let's share the feelings of welcome and belonging. Listening, learning, laughing together.
It’s amazing what we can do when we move together towards a shared goal. So let’s redefine and rediscover our collective power to shape hopeful futures and begin by practicing, celebrating and rehearsing it every day.
Join us for Refugee Week, 16–22 June 2025, and together let's unleash the superpower of community.
