D3.3 Capacity Building in Public Policy Strengthening and Advocacy

Train and strengthen young migrant organisations in public, advocacy and organisationa sustainability

The Deliverable has been led by JEF and VYRE and it is the result of the Task 3.3, “Public policy capacity: Train and strengthen young migrant organisations in public policy, advocacy and organisational sustainability”. This third part of the training series was addressed to policy officer and leadership of the targeted youth organisations.

The training employed a blended learning approach:

  • First, an introductory online module was offered. Participants were assigned tasks and asked to work virtually in teams on the assigned tasks.
  • This was followed by a two-day online workshop, organised by JEF and VYRE in Brussels. These workshops were a means of working in small groups, accross cultural lines, so as to discuss advocacy techniques and co-create common messages, campaign ideas for socially and economically vulnerable migrants and refugeees.

In the onine workshops, participants helped to co-create local or national advocacy campaings including:

  • Key messages
  • Targets
  • Dissemination channels
  • Indicators for impact
