Looking for bicultural workers to participate in a project

Are you employed in a bicultural or community liaison role in a Victorian health, community, or settlement service?
Do you work with people from refugee backgrounds including people seeking asylum?
Would you like to be part of a project on the health needs of people from refugee backgrounds, and their experiences of using health services?
Would you like to build your skills in conducting community consultation?
The Victorian Refugee Health Network is conducting a project, with support from the Centre for Culture, Ethnicity and Health, which aims to build the skills of people employed in bicultural roles to consult with refugee background communities about their health priorities and experiences of using health services.
To participate in the project bicultural workers need to:
- Attend a full-day networking and skills building Forum at Foundation House in Brunswick on Tuesday 22 March 2016
- Consult with five people or groups from the refugee background communities they work with over a five week period.
- Submit de-identified data from the consultations to the Victorian Refugee Health Network by Friday 29 April 2016.
