Have you encountered lies or half-truths about migration in your work, activist life or while browsing information privately, and up to this day you are not sure what to do about it?  Would you like to have a sense of security from knowing how to react in these types of situations as well as serve as inspiration for others when it comes to reaction strategies?  If the answer is  “yes” – sign up for our Learning Group. We will work on  better understanding and being able to counter disinformation around migration. 

In the Learning Group we will track down false information about migration, check how we react and think about how to deal with them from an individual, organizational and systemic perspective. We will empower ourselves and strengthen our portfolio of reactions through creative exchange of experiences and ideas under the guidance of an experienced trainer.
