Canterbury Cultures - 12th Annual Regional Refugee Forum

Canterbury Cultures is a major collaboration of not-for-profit agencies that all have one thing in common - working with our migrant and refugee communities. 

Canterbury Cultures is a programme about the stories of newcomers to Christchurch and the resources for Canterbury's refugee and migrant communities presented by those working in the sector. Canterbury Cultures celebrates the diversity of Canterbury’s different cultures by speaking with migrants themselves and their experiences in our Garden City.

Each programme is hosted by a different organisation in rotation with all sorts of topics being discussed, such as migrant experiences and stories, what's available for people new to our region, the challenges, what works well and what needs to happen to improve services and delivery. The programme airs the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays at 10:30am  and is repeated Thursdays at 10:30am.

Hear about the wonderful contributions diverse cultures bring to enrich our city. There may even be some delicious recipes and lessons on easy words in different languages. It's a veritable potpourri of culture for your ears.

This programme involves the following people/organisations: Canterbury Refugee Resettlement and Resource Centre; Patrick O'Connor (PEETO Cultural Development Trust); Maria Fresia (Interpreting Canterbury) and Hagley College.
