Welcoming International’s Post

Today's #WelcomingWeek2024 theme, Connected Communities, is all about creating trust and understanding among community members. This year, Welcoming Week event hosts are connecting community members across 8 countries, including France and Poland: two countries hosting Welcoming Week events for the first time! 🎉 Here are just a few of the events happening internationally this #WelcomingWeek2024. In Canada, Silent Voice will host a Welcoming BBQ for deaf and hard of hearing newcomers. https://lnkd.in/e2vwBQGX In Australia, newcomers to the Gladstone region are invited to a morning tea event hosted by the Gladstone Regional Council, where neighbors can connect with one another and meet local service providers. https://lnkd.in/eHkw--rw In France, ANVITA will provide more information about Europe's Library Bridges project, which includes a focus on inviting new community members to their libraries. https://lnkd.in/eSybHMB8 And just a few weeks ago, Poland's Foundation Pol celebrated and explored Middle Eastern history through a walking tour of Kraków. https://lnkd.in/e-eCV_jY Will you host or attend a #WelcomingWeek2024 event focused on connected communities this week?
