A.6.07 – World Café in Integration Work

60 minutes

For the purpose of this activity, the Tutor appoints a learner who has not previously facilitated the group to facilitate a world café activity.

The facilitator divides the learners in three groups and prepares three tables with the required chairs.

For each table, the facilitator writes on a big sheet of paper one of these questions:

  1. What are the skills required to work with migrant people?
  2. What are the main mistakes that you can make in working with migrant communities?
  3. How will you manage conflict when working with migrant communities?

The facilitator appoints one leader for each table who will remain at the table and feedback to the group when the activity is over.

The facilitator manages the time for each round, allowing 6-8 minutes for each round.

Learners are encouraged to write answers to each of the questions and to fill the sheets using different colour pens and markers.

At the end of each round, all learners apart from the table leader will move to the next table.

At the end of the 3 rounds, the facilitator will call an end to the activity and will ask the table leaders to summarise the points from their table.

After this feedback, the learners will provide feedback on how the session was facilitated.

Next, the activity will be repeated with a second learner taking on the role of facilitator and with the 3 tables answering the following questions:

  1. What are the main issues affecting migrant populations in your country?
  2. What activities can you plan or support can you provide to help these migrants to integrate locally?
  3. What supports are available through local charities and organisations to help you in your role?
