SBO is therefore advocating nationally and internationally for the fundamental rights and dignity of refugee’s communities, both in Europe and in the Middle East. In Lebanon, we conduct advocacy campaigns regarding the issue of early marriage since 2013. We have launched several related projects such as a monthly newsletter in 2017, the “child marriage comics series” in 2018 and the “Refugee Journal” in 2019. In Brussels, we are continuously advocating for the rights of asylum seekers in Belgium and their good integration and inclusion since 2013. We publish newsletter, reports, surveys and constantly organize and participate in events, workshops and advocacy campaigns in that regard. Our aim is to create links and building bridges between all stakeholders working in the field of migration in order to join our forces and maximize our impact. We collaborate with advocacy platforms active in the field of migration at the Belgian, European and International levels. SBO is a member of several umbrellas’ platforms such as CNCD, PICUM, The ECRE, IOM Migration, Plate-forme Mineurs en Exile etc. We have further developed a project called “Sharing Hope and Building Bridges with Young Asylum Seekers in Brussels”, where we organize workshop days aimed at creating a link and improving the proximity between advocacy platforms and young asylum seekers themselves. Being one of the only organizations in Brussels working directly with young refugees but also active in the advocacy field is a great advantage for SBO.
