We would like to thank our partners, speakers and everyone who took part in our event yesterday! The evidence of hardship and the barriers faced by migrants are sobering but we are encouraged by the creativity and commitment to find new solutions. www.povertyalliance.org/guest-blog-a...

We’re coming towards the end of what has been a full and productive day. Looking forward to hearing reflections from Roddy Byers @tnlcommunityfund.org.uk ; Patrycja Kupiec@ therobertsontrust.bsky.social, and Carolyn Sawers @ corra.scot #Migrantpoverty #MPSPolicyLaboratory

Migrant-led organisations hold a wealth of expertise and trust into migrant communities. They are well placed to develop and offer training inputs and learning exchanges to support the work of mainstream advise services and support organisations. #Migrantpoverty #MPSPolicyLaboratory

Shaina Gabi, Citizens Advice Edinburgh cabedinburgh.bsky.social‬ and Agota Rauktyte, citzrights.bsky.social presenting the new guidance to support advisors and case workers when offering financial health checks to migrant service users. Link below👇#Migrantpovertyt#MPSPolicyLaboratoryry

The policy laboratory designed local service maps, as well as a handbook to support intercultural communication in service delivery settings. Links to these resources in the comments! #Migrantpoverty #MPSPolicyLaboratory @glasgowclyde.bsky.social‬

MPS Researcher Leri Price presents our Policy Laboratory: “Collectively we hold more of the answers to the challenges we face than we realise. Our policy laboratories bring people together to solve problems and create changes that are practical, feasible and effective.”

Dr Laura Robertson from @povertyalliance.org speaking at our showcase event:Tackling Poverty in Migrant Households @cosla.gov.uk

Our expert panel. “JRF Cost of Living Tracker 2024 found 80% of families with NRPF going without essentials like food, clothing or heating, and nearly half (48%) going hungry”. #Migrantpoverty

MPS Assoc Director @ beckakaymcc.bsky.social “It is incompatible with commitments to social justice and poverty reduction to treat migrant experiences of poverty as niche or specialist. They must become part of mainstream policy and practice.” #Migrantpoverty

Our event on Tackling Poverty in Migrant Households has started! Minister for Equalities ‪@ kaukabstewart.bsky.social‬ has just welcomed everyone, and we are looking forward to sharing the evidence and partnership work we have developed over the last two years#Migrantpovertyt#MPSPolicyLaboratoryry

Migrants are disproportionately affected by poverty in Scotland. Collectively we hold more answers to these challenges than we might think. Read our blog with @povertyalliance.org to find out more about MPS work in this area and our innovative policy laboratory
