Awareness and Advocacy by I-TRAN
There are thousands of Tamil children in Southeast Asia who are affected by war, conflict and unrest. Many of them have fled their homeland and their parents. Others are internally displaced in their own country.
- We network with other agencies and people who share similar to join forces in providing assistance to these refugees and their families.
- We engage local governments and UNHCR in Southeast Asia (Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and India) to better understand issues of refugees to develop programs that improve the lives of refugees and also provide a long-term solution such as education, Health Care, rejected UNHCR Refugee status, basic needs and essential services, and resettlement programs, etc.
- Use different media to raise awareness and educate the Canadian public, such as newsletters, e-newsletters, sponsorship reports and our own publications.
- I-TRAN needs funds to continue do awareness and advocacy
