EYST is part of the Welsh Refugee Coalition which is a coalition of organisations working in Wales with asylum seekers and refugees at all stages of their journey, and with the communities in which they live. Through collaborative work, the Coalition aims to contribute to a more equal, globally responsible Wales with cohesive communities to make Wales a welcoming place of safety where rights are enjoyed and asylum seekers and refugees can thrive. The Coalition aims to sustain engagement with the Welsh Government, UK Government and public decision-makers to ensure policies have a positive impact on the lives of asylum seekers and refugees and their integration into Welsh communities. It also aims to promote understanding of asylum and refugee rights and issues and enable asylum seeker and refugee voices to be heard.
