What is Stand up! Speak Out! (SUSO) ?
Stand Up! Speak Out! is designed to give public sector workers up-to-date knowledge of the rapidly changing immigration policy context and the implications for their work. We create spaces for public sector workers to reflect on their professional identity and empower them to resist complicity with hostile and inhumane immigration policy. We invite and inspire public sector workers to be allies in the movement for migrant justice. We believe education is a powerful tool for social change!
There is so much expertise in the migrant justice NGO sector and we want to create a space for that expertise to be shared with public sector workers. We have kept their teaching space accessible by delivering it online, for free, and keeping webinars “bite-size”. The aim is for public sector workers to be equipped with practical, transferable knowledge and skills that they can use when working with people with insecure immigration status.
Please take a look at the attached SUSO 2023 impact report for more information about who ran sessions last year and how it was received (very positively!).
Thanks to the amazing success of Stand Up! Speak Out! 2023 series, we are running the series again in 2024! We cannot deliver this series without the amazing contribution, skills and knowledge of the sector so we are asking for organisations and groups who would like to participate in 2024 (including those who have already participated this year) to come to us with their ideas!
We ask for interested folks to please complete this Expression of Interest form and for all submissions to be sent by no later than Friday 1st December 2023 at 12pm.
Please take a look at the attached impact report about this year’s series and also recordings from this year (for those that gave permission) which we’ve launched on our YouTube channel today!
