The Discussion Guide

This guide is a helpful tool to continue conversations about immigrant and refugee resettlement in classrooms, universities, and social organizations. If you are committed to dismantling inequities, marginalization, discrimination, and oppression, use this resource to raise awareness and call out community stakeholders to take action. Immigrant and refugee communities are still marginalized on stances of race, cultural and religious traditions, gender identity, sexuality, and language to name a few. Hence, this is a pivotal opportunity to challenge dominant and exclusionary beliefs.

Given the intricate dynamics these discussions might carry, it is important to note this guide provides you with some helpful tips on how to guide these conversations, and how to respond to challenging situations.
