Sounding Board: A Social Learning Space
Sounding Board is a social learning space for co-sponsorship staff at both the local and national levels to share resources, best practices, challenges, and lessons learned in the field. Meetings are interactive and discussion-based. If you would like to suggest a future Sounding Board topic, please email info@refugeewelcome.org.
Communities of Practice
Depending on your role with community sponsorship, when you join a community of practice you will connect with others carrying out similar tasks and responsibilities. You will have the chance to learn how others in similar positions manage, and together share knowledge and best practices.
Refugee Welcome Collective supports communities of practice to meet on a regular basis, and is a platform for sharing lessons learned, materials developed, and further connections and knowledge across communities.
