Established in 1951, IOM is a Related Organization of the United Nations, and as the leading UN agency in the field of migration, works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants.

The Afghanistan Citizen’s Resettlement Scheme (ACRS) provides a safe and legal route for some of the most vulnerable and at-risk people from Afghanistan to come to the United Kingdom and rebuild their lives. The UK Government has committed to welcoming up to 20,000 people who are at risk through the ACRS. IOM facilitates pre-departure preparation activities for people arriving under the ACRS including but not limited to the provision of migration health assessments, UK Cultural Orientation (UKCO) and organised movement assistance. 

IOM’s experience in facilitating various resettlement programmes has shown that investment in providing refugees with accurate and relevant information about their resettlement and integration pre- departure is vital in enhancing the integration process upon arrival.

Integration is a two-way process, however, working best when both refugees and those in receiving communities have a good understanding of each other’s expectations, cultural differences, and practices. IOM UK therefore launched its Information Sessions in May 2016 to increase local knowledge of the refugee communities being resettled in the UK, thereby helping to reduce the adjustment period for refugees and supporting strong, appropriate integration services.

Under the general supervision of the National Project Coordinator, and in direct consultation with Project Coordinator Resettlement and Local Authority Engagement, IOM Missions overseas, and relevant external stakeholders, the Project Associate (Refugee Information Sessions) will assist in the preparation and delivery of Information Sessions and associated capacity building workshops activities implemented by IOM London as part of the ACRS.

About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.
