About NCADC's Train-the-Trainer project |
 The National Coalition of Anti-Deportation Campaigns (NCADC) gives advice and support about anti-deportation campaigns, raises public awareness of the effects of inhumane and unjust immigration policy, and lobbies for change. NCADC has two workers, each dealing with inquiries from 300+ people facing deportation each month - our resources are streched.
In 2005, NCADC started giving workshops on how to set up an anti-deportation campaign which has helped enable communities to build up their own capacity to establish campaigns. Over 1,500 people have attended the NCADC workshops - many new campaigns have been established and the "community of resistance" has swelled as a result. See dates for NCADC workshops here.
But it's still not nearly enough to meet the needs of those facing deportation who need advice about establishing anti-deportation campaigns.
With help from Barrow Cadbury , NCADC set up the "Train-the-Trainer" project to train and support people to hold their own anti-deportation campaign workshops in their communities. Train-the-Trainer is multiplying the benefits of the workshops by increasing capacity within the communities. The Train-the-Trainer seminar programme has been developed by an Advisory Panel of experienced campaigners.
The NCADC "Train-the-Trainer" project
- 6 regional Train-the-Trainer seminars around the UK
- On-going support for “trainers” giving workshops in their communities
- Train-the-Trainer “tools” and facilitated self-help network of “trainers”
 "NCADC's workshop helped me establish my own anti-deportation campaign. Train-the-Trainer will mean more workshops are held around the country. I want to use my time and experience by helping others to set up their own campaigns, especially within the Pakistani community in Manchester. So I'm going to become a "trainer" by attending a Train-the-Trainer seminar."
