Hourly Schedule
Day One : 29/06/2026
- 10:00 - 12:30
- IOM Support and Global Migration
- This session’s content will focus primarily on the global context of displacement, where Resettlement sits within that, the Resettlement process, and cultural adjustment of refugees once they arrive in the UK. This session will be participatory and rely heavily on participant engagement through case studies and discussion; therefore we highly encourage participants to come prepared to have their cameras on during the session.

We suggest participants google and read the New York Times article “Wonder and Worry, as a Syrian Child Transforms” ahead of the session and come prepared to discuss. This session will be participatory and rely heavily on participant engagement through case studies and discussion, therefore we highly encourage participants to come prepared to have their cameras on during the session.
