Resources for multi-agency forums and partnerships

Below are a list of some resources developed and produced by the Partnership Development Project and its partners for use by anyone with interest in dealing with asylum seekers, refugees and migrant workers. These resources are useful for multi-agency and partnership work.

These resources are offered to our regional network members at no cost and are available in a variety of formats, including web-based resources. Although these resources have not been widely advertised, we received a lot of requests from organisations based outside of our region.
