West Midlands Migrant Ambassadors programme 2023

West Midlands Migrant Ambassadors programme 2023

Are you active in your community, feel passionate about changing the debate on migration, and concerned about the lack of migrant voices in the media?

If so, this is for you. Migrant Voice is looking for proactive migrants in the West Midlands who are keen to develop their skills and knowledge in getting the voices and issues of their communities into the media.

You’ll become one of our migrant ambassadors. We’ll share with you our years of experience and train you in identifying stories in your community and pitching them to the media – and you’ll get plenty of follow-up mentoring and support from us too.

Participants will get a copy of our media toolkit and information about how to contact journalists in the West Midlands. You’ll also become part of our national network of migrant ambassadors and be able to share experiences and learning with them, as well as having access to future media training activities to further build your skills.

Join our programme on Saturday, 4 February. To book or find out more, contact info@migrantvoice.org.
