Domestic abuse can create particular difficulties for migrants who are dependent on their partner's visa. Thankfully, immigration law contains some options for migrant victims and survivors to secure status in their own right. Join Law Centre NI legal officers to learn about potential legal solutions.

This event is free, and we encourage all to attend so that we are informed.

This workshop is a playfully participatory space to expore justice as a social construct, through a feminist lens. Inviting our participants to explore the tensions between our desire for punishment and our desire for change.

In person event at The MAC Belfast.
