Date: 11th March 2015, Time: 12.00noon – 4.00PM
Venue: London Metropolitan University, Holloway Road. Exact location to be confirmed.
Refreshments will be provided.
The purpose of the event is to try out different approaches to effective conversations between patients and health professionals. We need greater shared understanding about managing health and how to communicate about it.
We invite patients (particularly those from refugee and migrant backgrounds), doctors and other health professionals to discuss health issues together. We will consider what issues are most important in your community.
Through practical group exercises, we will explore
- different ideas of what's important in health and how to manage illness
- fresh strategies and skills for communication between patient and professional
- ways to move forward when patients and doctors disagree.
Based on feedback from the first session, we will also introduce patients to information that will help them think differently about their health and other care services, including the role of medication and prescribing antibiotics.
By the end of the workshop, participants will have had the opportunity for better understanding of others' ideas about health and improved communication skills for conversations about health and illness.
This workshop session is led by Delia Muir and Hament Patel Director of OCP Ltd working with the Co-Productive Learning for Better Health project, using an approach to communication developed with the Professional Support Unit in London, which is part of Health Education England.
It is supported by Stepping Stone 4, a Swahili support charity and the Evelyn Oldfield Unit, a support agency for refugee and migrant community organisations.

MRN at the Human Rights Watch Film Festival: The Shelter @ Barbican
When: 16 Mar 2015 - 18:15 Where: Barbican Centre, Silk Street, London EC2Y 8DS THE SHELTER UK premiere + Q&A with filmmaker This year MRN, in teaming up with the Human Rights Watch to present the UK Premiere of The Shelter, which charts a cold winter spent at an emergency shelter for homeless migrants in the wealthy city of Lausanne. Accomplished documentarian Fernand Melgar, is renowned for his powerful investigations into the injustices of Swiss society. His sensitive approach renders the camera invisible, immersing us straight into the heart of a hidden bunker where the same dramatic ritual unfolds every night. Shelter staff have the terrible task of randomly selecting the evening's residents: women and children first, men later if there is room. The shelter can hold 100 people, yet frustratingly, only 50 'chosen ones' will be allowed inside the concrete walls. Those that remain outside face a long and lonely night. Following controversial The Fortress and Emmy-nominated Special Flight, The Shelter is a masterful third part to Melgar's documentation of the migrant experience in Europe, and vital testament to the power of film to shed light on stories hidden in the shadows. For tickets please visit the Barbican website
Somali Community Public Meeting
When: Wednesday, 18th March, 2015 from 17:30 PM - 20:00
Where: Camden Town Hall, Judd Street WC1H 9JE London
Public Meeting at Camden Town Hall to discuss with a panels of journalists, local government and Metropolitan Police staff how to work together to resolve issues affecting the Somali community.
For too long the media has illustrated all that is 'going wrong' in the Somali community. In autumn of 2014, a group of 10 young British Somali leaders came together to tackle this negative stereotyping. The group, coordinated by Migrants Rights Network, set out on a quest to push back at the constant negative portrayal of their community and to advocate for solutions to some of the main issues affecting the Somali community. For the past few months the team have been tirelessly generating research from focus groups across several London boroughs.The results from this research highlighted three main areas of concern: - Negative media representation
- Unfair police treatment – criminalisation of Somali youth
- The government's failure to uphold their promise for rehabilitative support following the khat ban
At the public event, the team will present their findings and work with expert panels made up of police commissioners, journalists, health service experts and third sector organisations representatives to come up with solutions and recommendations for British Somali residents on how to challenge media and police stereotyping.
