The report, published by the Department of Integration showed that despite 'an overwhelming enthusiasm' amongst the refugees to learn English, supports were lacking
Ireland's United Nations Migration Agency has researched the experiences of refugees who came to Ireland as part of the Government's Irish Refugee Protection Programme.
However, the report, published by the Department of Integration showed that despite"an overwhelming enthusiasm" amongst the refugees to learn English, supports were lacking. Researchers noted the need for concerted efforts to provide language supports and the use of English in everyday social situations are all necessary to address these key integration concerns.
"Access to interpreters is inconsistent and frequently falls below standards established in the Irish health system," it said. It said repetition of that information could reduce later distress, as family reunification possibilities are so important to a choice of destination for resettled refugees who choose to travel ahead of other family members.
