Rethink Rebuild Society joined over 80 international and Syrian NGOs on 29 April to call upon Obama and Putin to take immediate and decisive action to save Syria's ceasefire which has been flagrantly violated by the Assad regime. This statement was reported in international press
Dr Haytham Alhamwi from RR and Dr Ayman Jundi from Syria Relief charity delivered talks to Manchester University students in a Reconstruction and Development course as well as a Humanitarian Responses to Crisis course on Thursday 28 April.
In light of the failure of the Syria peace talks (yet again) and the Assad regime's continuous violation of the ceasefire agreement, Syrian groups in the UK published a statement on 27 April calling on the international community to 'put civilian protection at the heart of its Syrian policy'.
We met with Stephen Hale, Chief Executive of Refugee Action, on 26 April to discuss integration and resettlement efforts for Syrian refugees. Building upon a previous meeting that we had with him, we discussed ways in which we can highlight some issues that Syrian refugees face, most particularly a lack of access to ESOL classes.
We were happy to be invited to Leeds University by the Politics and International Studies Society (POLIS), on 20th April 2016, to speak to students about the conflict in Syria. It was a pleasure to engage with such intelligent students and answer their questions about the Syrian conflict.
