Displaced is a migrant-led organisation dedicated to tackling health inequity among young migrant people and families by developing youth leadership and belonging.

We use our culturally equitable, trauma-informed approach through:

  1. Education

    These workshops aim to educate young people and their parents on the indicators and preventative measures for risks such as radicalisation. 

  2. Coaching

    These sessions create an emotionally safe space where young people can speak about their experiences and develop their

    socio-emotional skills. Our intergenerational coaching includes addressing communication breakdowns with parents and carers.

  3. Community Building

    These events are where we facilitate discussion which develop empathy and understanding between our community and decision makers from local organisations and statutory services.
