Enabling Lived Experience Leadership

Historically, every successful campaigns and movements have been led by people experiencing injustices. For example women rights were led by women, LGBT, amazon workers etc. But when it comes to asylum seekers and refugees and migrants it is a different story altogether. In this course you will learn how you can enable people with lived experience of forced migration and migrants to lead from the frontline. The course will also teach people with Lived experience of migration to step forward and lead in their communities in order to win. I made this course because of the conviction that we can end hostile environment.

I Am a migrants rights campaigner. I came to the UK as a migrants, I lived as an asylum seeker in the UK for 7 years and now as a refugee. In the process I learnt how to speak for myself and others that have lost their voices. In this course am sharing lessons and good practices that made me to grow, influence and lead a collective of over 100 people from over 23 nationalities who are going through the UK asylum and immigration system, as an asylum seeker myself and brought the group to national prominence. It was also under my leadership that we started a housing project that houses members who are destitute. Learn how you can support people with lived experience to lead and be themselves again. If you are an expert by experience the course will open your eyes to what's possible.
