Advocacy

In furtherance of its charitable objectives, RR strives to raise awareness on issues related to refugees and immigrants within the British landscape through work on policy and media. Because of our daily work with Syrian refugees, we serve as a critical source of information on the Syrian conflict for journalists and through our professional relationships with these journalists we work on the framework by which refugee crises, particularly in Syria, are discussed. RR also organises seminars and hosts academic conferences that draw in leading academics and community organisers for discussion and insight on often overlooked aspects of the Syrian conflict and other conflicts in the region.

Event with Andy Burnham MP

Friday, 20/01/2017

We attended an event on 20 January to meet Andy Burnham MP who is Labour's candidate for Mayor of Manchester. As Andy took questions from the audience, we asked him if he would commit to resettling Syrian refugees to Manchester under the Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme.
