Hello,,
Centre for Newcomers - CFN plans to conduct Empowering Community through Self-Defense class on 18th November 2023 from 09:30 to 12:30 pm at Centre for Newcomers 125, 565 36 Street NE, Calgary, AB T2A 6K3. Poster attached wit this email.
This workshop is intended to teach empowerment and self-defence skills to people who have been or could be impacted by racialized, xenophobic, or other discriminatory scenarios.
Furthermore, participating in a self-defense workshop ensures that newcomers are prepared to face any unexpected situations they may encounter. Here are a few key reasons why attending such workshops would greatly benefit newcomers like yourself:
1. Personal Safety: Acquiring self-defense skills empowers you to protect yourself in potentially dangerous situations.
2. Building Confidence: Self-defense workshops not only teach physical techniques but also help you develop mental resilience, assertiveness, and confidence.
3. Community Engagement: Attending self-defense workshops presents an excellent opportunity to connect you with fellow newcomers in a supportive environment.
4. Cultural Awareness: You can gain a deeper understanding of Canadian laws, customs, and cultural norms related to personal safety. This knowledge promotes harmonious integration into society.
Please call/email us via 403-478-5390, [email protected] for registration.
Warmest regards,

Hamidullah Muazam

Ukrainian Calgary -
Ukrainian CalgaryHello and good afternoon, friends in this group. Centre for Newcomers plans to conduct a survey to understand how people access to immigrant service organizations in Calgary, Canada. The collected data will be analyzed, generated as an assessment report, and will be used to improve services for newcomers by non-government agencies. The questionnaire is designed into two main parts, and it will take approximately 2 or 3 minutes to fill and submit. The data collected through this assessment will be kept strictly confidential and we ask that you provide no self-identifying information anywhere in your survey responses. We sincerely thank you in advance for your cooperation in participating and circulating this survey link docs.google.com/forms/d/1ueAiJIMZqJYQ7FiNf40x6Yr2dpxN_nFtk7HAbY0RGjE/edit for other newcomers in communities you belong. If you have any questions, please call Hamidullah Muazam from Centre for Newcomers at 4034785390 or email [email protected] who is doing for this survey.
