60 years of the Ecumenical Migration Centre

Since its initial establishment in 1956, the MCT has supported women from migrant, refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds around key settlement issues – housing, English classes, community capacity building, employment and training, family counselling and mediation, leadership programs, as well as financial literacy to name a few.To celebrate these 60 years of service, the MCT has put together a book called Opening Doors, which document some of the path breaking work to support women from migrant and refugee backgrounds.Joining me on today's program are Halima Mohamed, a leader in the Somali community and one of the MCT's program participants. Sarina Greco, former team leader from 1997 to 2005, and current team leader, Hutch Hussein.
