Today, we had a meaningful engagement with our partners from the NRC - Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), who held a meeting with members of the refugee community to introduce and discuss the Spoke Centre initiative.
The session focused on explaining what the Spoke Centre is, how it will operate, and the important role it will play in addressing community challenges. A key highlight was the process of selecting a refugee representative who will work closely with local leaders, including LC I officials, to strengthen coordination and improve access to support and services.
This collaboration is a powerful step toward empowering refugees to be part of the solutions within their own communities, fostering trust, accountability, and stronger connections between refugees and local leadership.
