    Meetup #21: Samen Hier
    On the 20th of April, Samen Hier (an initiative by Justice and Peace The Hague) are our guests for the evening. Have you ever wondered if there is an alternative approach to our current policy making regarding refugees and newcomers? Well, you are not the only one. Samen Hier is exploring alternative methods such as the Canadian sponsorship model (the 'Together Project'), where citizens combine their networks and resources to welcome refugees into society. Samen Hier is trying out pilots to create more evidence-based support for this approach in The Netherlands. They are still looking for more creative input on the idea of community sponsorship for refugees. That is why we need you! Join us on the evening of the 20th of April to learn more about this approach, think with Samen Hier on how they could integrate the community sponsorship model and help them move forward. Join us for our crowdconsulting and brainstorm session and help Samen Hier move forward with their mission.
