[PSRList] Seeking Code of Conduct/Policies for Refugee Sponsorship

Wed Feb 5 21:54:54 UTC 2020

Dear PSR list members,
Based on suggestions from the sponsorship community at the last Canadian Council for Refugees (CCR) consultation, the CCR Overseas Protection and Resettlement Working Group is exploring the idea of creating a code of conduct for sponsorship groups, and amending the existing code of ethics.<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fccrweb.ca%2Fen%2Fcode-ethics-groups-involved-private-sponsorship-refugees&data=02%7C01%7C%7C383190f9486f4b92978108d7aa852d88%7Ca5827fca282b40a69875772ff7768431%7C0%7C0%7C637165361288559559&sdata=vvuxmOeebfgv%2BpCQpRNQ93GtC5dc38kb%2BUQpFwuzW9Y%3D&reserved=0>  The RSTP will be collaborating with the CCR to explore this possibility.
If your sponsorship group, program, or organization has a code of conduct, code of ethics, or policy document that helps guide sponsoring groups working with refugees (especially any which aim to protect newcomers from sexual abuse), we would be very grateful if you could share it with us by February 12th.
Please share any documents with me directly at nnasir at rstp.ca<mailto:nnasir at rstp.ca>.
