Initial membership comprised academics, researchers, displaced people, 2nd/3rd generation migrants, and practitioners in the fields of community development and statutory services. A registered charity, RAPAR functions as a support provider to displaced people, a campaign group, a community development facilitator and a research producer. It was the winner of the 2009 Elspeth Kyle National Award for Best Community Impact[3] Main activitiesCaseworkRAPAR supports displaced people in a variety of ways, including providing asylum seekers whose application has been rejected by UK Visas and Immigration with the means to develop campaigns against this decision.[4] This may include helping to set up petitions, encouraging advocacy letters to politicians, cultivating press and media interest, providing access to legal assistance and helping to organise protests and demonstrations.[5] More general services include facilitating links to local communities and groups and providing support relating to issues such as education and housing.[1][6] Community DevelopmentRAPAR encourages the formation of local groups and networks and supports a number of initiatives, including:
ResearchRAPAR develops research projects and learning opportunities relating to displaced people. RAPAR cites the Action Research principle first expounded by Kurt Lewin in 1946, and the Action Learning of Reginald Revans (1998) as important to its methodology and ethos. This approach centres around social research with a practical goal, and a research methodology that favours research being conducted by the research subjects. It has produced research for the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and the Equality and Human Rights Commission.{{Citation needed|date=March 2013}} FundingRAPAR is run entirely on a voluntary basis, with financial support from changing sources. Past funding has come from The Allen Lane Foundation, The Lloyds TSB Foundation, Gingerbread, individual donors, and fundraising events.{{Citation needed|date=March 2013}} References1. ^1 {{cite news|author=Anushka Asthana |author-link=Anushka Asthana|url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2004/mar/28/immigration.immigrationandpublicservices |title=Special investigation: hidden asylum seekers | UK news | The Observer |publisher=Guardian |date= 2004-04-27|accessdate=2013-03-06 |location=London}} 2. ^{{cite news|author=Hannah Godfrey |url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/mar/20/iraq.immigration?INTCMP=SRCH |title=From Baghdad to Britain - the plight of Iraqis facing deportation | World news |publisher=The Guardian |date=2008-03-20 |accessdate=2013-03-06 |location=London}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nujmanchester.org.uk/site/page.php?i=5&category=news&id=1161&msg=NEWS&finds=0 |title=NUJ Manchester & Salford Branch - paul robeson comes back to manchester |publisher=Nujmanchester.org.uk |date=2010-10-27 |accessdate=2013-03-06}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.burytimes.co.uk/news/2318348.journalist_wins_fight_to_stay_in_uk/ |title=Journalist wins fight to stay in UK (From Bury Times) |publisher=Burytimes.co.uk |date=2008-06-05 |accessdate=2013-03-06}} 5. ^{{cite web|author='+relative_time (twitters[i].created_at)+' |url=http://ncadc.org.uk/blog/2009/11/help-lydia-and-bernard-to-stay-campaign/ |title=Help Lydia and Bernard to Stay Campaign | NCADC - blog |publisher=NCADC |date=2009-11-12 |accessdate=2013-03-06}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.leighjournal.co.uk/news/8876593.Community_support_for_James/ |title=Community support for James (From Leigh Journal) |publisher=Leighjournal.co.uk |date=2011-02-25 |accessdate=2013-03-06}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://manchestermule.com/article/rapar-launch-new-youth-forum |title=» RAPAR launch new youth forum - MULE |publisher=Manchestermule.com |date=2010-07-07 |accessdate=2013-03-06}} External links
