In Places of Sanctuary Ireland, we have recognised a need for refugees, asylum seekers and other migrants to be provided with opportunities through which they can learn how to navigate the complicated and rather different political system in this country.

We try to address this need by offering free short courses about how the political system works in Ireland. and how to communicate with the media here effectively. We also seek opportunities for our students to meet politicians in person in a constructive and organised fashion, so their concerns can be channelled to the decision makers in a most positive manner.

    City of Sanctuary

    About

    City of Sanctuary is a movement to build a culture of hospitality for people seeking sanctuary in the UK. Our goal is to create a network of towns and cities throughout the country which are proud to be places of safety for people seeking sanctuary and helping them integrate into their local communities.

    Through creating a national network of Cities of Sanctuary, we aim to demonstrate the desire of people of goodwill throughout the country for a more just and humane approach to people seeking sanctuary in this country.
