A World of Neighbours connects grassroots practitioners working on behalf of people on the move across Europe. Through the practitioners’ network, these committed and courageous persons find mutual support in a community of practice. They share best practices, gain access to models, skills and expertise, and magnify their collective impact.

In the midst of increasing nationalism and xenophobia, the network reaches beyond national borders and distinctions of religion and ethnicity, to the benefit of the European community as a whole.

Perhaps most importantly, these practitioners seek to ensure that refugees and migrants have

“a seat at the table” with policymakers and institutional leaders whose decisions over their lives are the difference between despair and self-determination. This journey from stranger to neighbour, from the traumatic experience of being displaced to being fully embraced in convivenz—the reality of authentically living together—must ultimately be a shared journey. A World of Neighbours is looking to share this journey with you.
