This includes funding orientation programmes for people that are new to Belfast as well as funding case work support. Through our good relations grant aid programme we also provide financial support for projects to build connections between new and older communities.
We currently chair the Belfast Migrant Forum that supports ports networking and communication between organisations that work with minority ethnic communities.
We have produced a Refugee Transition Guide, that provides key information to people who have recently received refugee status.
Request the guide by emailing goodrelations@belfastcity.gov.uk or calling 028 9027 0663.
In November 2022, we published research findings on inequalities experienced by Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic and Traveller people residing in Belfast.
Commissioned in partnership with Belfast Trust and the Public Health Agency (PHA), the research provides a more comprehensive understanding of the range of experiences of minority ethnic and migrant populations in Belfast to inform policy making and service provision in the city. Recommended next steps, to help address the issues identified, are also included.
