About This Session
Have you heard of the We’re Better Together campaign to rally and grow public support for newcomers? Have you wondered how it can help you in your everyday work and advocacy?
Join us to dig deeper into the applications of the campaign to your communications approach, to countering disinformation and to promote a much needed shift in the trend toward anti-immigrant rhetoric. You’ll also hear about plans for a collective week of action around World Refugee Day so we can all work together to create the support and momentum we need.
