While in the asylum seeking process, people still want to continue developing themselves and learning new skills. One way of doing that is by learning a new language, a skill that they can carry with them wherever they go. Therefore, at All4Aid we started an English Language Club at our Community Centre in Larnaca, Cyprus. We seek to provide a safe space for people not only to learn English, but also to relax and connect with people from other countries. We believe that a positive language-learning experience can help people reframe their experiences going forward in their journey. While learning English is part of the goals of the group, ultimately, we want people to come away with a sense of empowerment and achievement.
