Derbyshire Refugee Conference 2026

The annual Derbyshire Refugee Conference will take place again this year at the University of Derby on Friday 12 June 2026 (10am - 4pm).

Join us for an insightful, full-day in-person event bringing together researchers, organisations and stakeholders, to discuss contemporary issues facing displaced people and those seeking sanctuary locally, nationally and internationally.

The programme will include research presentations, insights from individuals with lived experience and those supporting them, and updates about the work undertaken as part of the 'University of Sanctuary' initiative at the University of Derby. The afternoon session will feature an interactive workshop on 'telling positive stories about refugees'.
