The Council's Welcoming Communities team work to help newcomers (former refugees, migrants and international students) and relocated New Zealanders feel more welcomed, connected and valued in their communities.
To do this, a new plan is being created to suit the unique needs of these newcomers. If you're new to Christchurch, we want to hear from you! We want to understand your needs, challenges, what you enjoy and what may have been missed, so we can create an inclusive environment.
