1MIGRATION PLAN
Case Study 1:
Develop a settlement plan for this family group based on the provided template or one being
used by a community service organization you are acquainted with
Requirement Activities
Housing, Transportation and Arrangement Seek help with NGO
Interpreter and Local Translator Service Seek help from local translation groups
Orientation Seek help from NGO in creating bank
accounts, getting medication help from the
pharmaceutical shops.
Language Training Local training institutes.
Employment Assistant Coordinate with NGOs and small and
medium scale enterprises.
Childcare Services Make arrangements for children of school
age for child care service and school
service.
Counselling Service Seek help from local counsellors.
Methods to be used to consult with this group around their needs and goals, and to
agree on action plans:
In order to communicate the needs and goals of the family, the family members,
especially the parents will be called and they will be provided information about life in
Canada. They will be informed about the ways they can find employment opportunities,
counselling options in the country, and also how the settlement plan will help them work and
live in Australia peacefully. The methods that can be used for communication of the needs

2MIGRATION PLAN
and goals will include different kinds of orientation workshops, counselling sessions as well
as online information and reading materials. Since these people are not proficient with
English, local translators will also be used in order to convey the message to the family
(Birch, 2014).
Implementation of the Action Plan:
While formulating as well as implementing the action plan, I would need to ensure
that proper financial assistance can be obtained from the government. I would have to send
details of the immigrants, and their health status to the government for funding assistance.
Further, I would seek non-financial assistance from different non-government organizations.
Also, I would seek help from the Refugee Council of Australia so that they can come forward
and voluntarily donate furniture, clothes, etc. to the family. Since the mother and her
children can speak only Dinka, so basic language communication trainers have to be
organized so that they can communicate their needs more freely. Cross-cultural training will
also be organized with the help of different NGOs so that they can be made acquainted with
the Australian culture and values. Further, I would be required to contact different refugee
sponsoring groups so that they can provide medical, personal or housing assistance. Further,
since displacement and apprehension of death have already psychologically affected the
family, I would also seek medical assistance in the form of counselling sessions from
different NGOs. Furthermore, I will also coordinate with Humanitarian Settlement Plan
sponsors, as they on behalf of the Australian government, offer voluntary services that help in
ensuring successful immigrant settlement of the refugees. They will help the immigrants
achieve outcome by providing valuable suggestions regarding housing options, employment
opportunities, and community participation and networking activities.
Ways of Monitoring the Progress of the Settlement Plan:

3MIGRATION PLAN
It is important to monitor as well as evaluate the success of the settlement plan to
understand how far it will be able to achieve success in terms of client outcome. First of all,
one needs to find out whether the immigrant family has received basic amenities within a
week or not. If housing or food amenities are not available, then definitely the settlement plan
is not going well. One also needs to monitor the progress by checking the time required by
the immigrant family for accessing the settlement services necessary for assisting them in
their integration journey (Moore, 2017). Also, the health status of the family members will
also be examined to ascertain whether the quality of settlement plan is good enough to
improve their overall socio-psychological health or not.
Explain how you would access the internal and external resources and referral options:
Internal resources that will be offered to assist the immigrant family will comprise of
the basic help that will be offered to the family. This will include basic healthcare facility,
food and medicine provision and orientation workshops. As far as external resources are
concerned, large- and small-scale companies will be contacted. Large companies will be
asked to sponsor the family needs as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives,
while small or medium scale companies can be asked to provide employment opportunity, if
any, to the elderly members of the family. External resources will also comprise of the
training institutes that will be asked to impart training to the family for induction into the
Australian culture (Wikström & Ahnlund, 2018) .
Cultural sensitivity Adaptation required
Language I would employ the help of some local
translator so that they can help me
communicate effectively with the family.
Culture I would arrange cross-cultural training for

4MIGRATION PLAN
the family members so as to enhance their
adaptability.
Social Norms I would have to ensure no social worker is
stereotyping the culture, language and
norms of the people of South Sudan. We
would develop understanding of the culture
of Sudan before conversing with them.
Response to Church group
I would certainly help the Church group to connect with the immigrants, as they will
help in providing solace to them. Since they are Christians, attending the Church will help
them in fulfilling religious obligations.

Case Study 2
Requirement Activities
Housing, Transportation and Arrangement Take the help of NGO and government
Interpreter and Local Translator Service Take help from local translation groups
Orientation Seek help from NGO in establishing bank
accounts, getting medical help from the
pharmaceutical shops, etc.
Language Training Local exercise institutes.
Employment Assistant Coordinate with NGOs and small and
medium scale enterprises.
Childcare Services Arrange for children of school age for
childcare service and school service.
Counselling Service Seek help from local therapists.
Methods to be used to consult with this group around their needs and goals, and to
agree on action plans:
The Australian government has taken many humanitarian strategies to make the
Syrian people not feel like aliens on the unfamiliar platform. The governments has
implemented many policies for the Syrian people to survive in the alien land. The UNCHR
camps for refugee helps in drawing the candidates from this land. There should be certain
orientation programs that will help the family to communicate with the natives Australia.
There should be various workshops that can be established for conducting the training of the
colloquial language to the Syrians. The Syrian can also access the internet to take the

6MIGRATION PLAN
initiative to learn the colloquial language of the present country they are landed in this will
help in understand and also getting familiar with the natives of the country. There are many
counselling sessions held along with the experts that can help the Syrians to understand the
native language and customs the translators can also help the Syrians to figure out the
problems. Videos on internet md classes provide online can also help the Syrians to achieve
can help to get accustomed with the customs of the native land and this will be helpful for
them to make other understand their needs. The Syrians can also acquire their goals and basic
requirements if they can adopt the language of the foreign land.
Implementation of Action plan
The formulation of the action plan will require financial help from the local
government and they have to provide some basic amenities to the Syrians so that they can
survive in the foreign land. I would also have to approach to small industrialists so that they
can provide employment to the Syrians and earn their livelihood for their family. I also have
to ask the industrialist to provide them decent wage scale. I can also seek help from NGOs
especially the ones who look after the homeless people. They will help the Syrians to give
them shelter along with food. I can also seek assistance from The Australian Refugee so that
they can provide minimum clothing, furniture (Fillion et al, 2014). Since the adults are very
familiar to English vocabulary, I can ask some arrangements for local translators that will
help the family to convey their needs to the service givers. I will also arrange for some Cross-
Cultural training will also be established worth then assistance of the NGOs so that they be
familiar with the Australian culture.
Methods of monitoring settlement plan
It is very important to establish a settlement plan to analyze the success of the
settlement of the Syrians also to understand the loopholes that has to mended in order to have

7MIGRATION PLAN
the Syrians an integral part of Australia. In the HSP, which is the Humanitarian Settlement
Plan, proposed by the government in which the government and the small-scale industrialists
have to provide employment to Syrians, training have to be provided to the Syrians in order
to adopt the Australian culture and language. Proper education also has to be given to them so
that they learn to value the customs of Australia. Health services also has to be provided to
the Syrians so that they can get the minimum help from the NGOs and the government. They
should also be given justice so that they do not feel biasedness.
The resources gained from internal and external service providers
The internal service implies to the NGOs who can provide the Syrians the basic
amenities that they require to have a healthy livelihood. The NGOs must provide the Syrians
with not only clothing but also food and lodging. The NGOs must also provide them good
health care facilities so that the Syrians also seek the minimum health facilities. The NGOs
also must provide them shelter so that the Syrians can protect them against the natural
calamities (Osborne, 2014). The external service providers are the large companies will be
asked to sponsor the personal needs as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility
enterprises, while small or medium scale companies can be asked to provide employment
opportunity, if any, to the elderly members of the family.
Cultural sensitivity Adaptation required
Language I would seek help of the local translators to
help in translation of the Syrian language.
The local translators will also be helpful in
making the Syrians learn the colloquial
language of Australia.
Culture The cultural values have to be taught the

8MIGRATION PLAN
Syrians. I will organise some cultural
gatherings so that the Syrians can observe
and learn the cultural aspects of the
Australians and the gap can be bridged.
Social The social integration of the Syrians and
Australians can be done by making them
indulged in social gathering in which they
can easily get along with one another and
exchange conversations.
My response to the Police Investigation
I being the local member in the community I have to provide information to police for
their safety and help them in carrying the investigation. I will also provide the necessary data
to the police for the Syrians to seek help and feel safe and secured. I will also help the police
to find out the actual criminal and not get any innocent penalized in any way. Yet, I will ask
the police to be little polite to the criminal and provide him counselling so that they do not
attempt the same crime again.

facilities provided, whether they are meeting the basic goals of the people or not, everything
will be taken care of. These various methodologies will be undertaken in order to know
whether the specific needs and goals of the refugee migrants are met or not.
Implementation of Action plan
The Action plan for the next two years is once set, and the methods of implementation
are also addressed to. The next steps include implementation of the action plan by engaging a
group of volunteers who will continuously be evaluating and monitoring the progress of the
entire rehabilitation process that is undergoing. The process needs monetary support as well.
So, we will talk to non-profit organizations as well as government and business entities where
we will make them understand the needs of giving shelter to the refugees, and the value of
human capital. We will provide them all necessary safety and security standards, and want
them to help us in both terms of monetary and non-monetary support facilities. We will try to
consult with existing NGOs and government organizations around the world, who will
provide us with necessary expertise in the field of migration and rehabilitation.
Methods of monitoring settlement plan
The settlement plan for the Buddhist group is for a period of two years, or twenty-four
months. Each fifteen days that is twice a month, all the activities undertaken, by the
rehabilitation centre should be taken care of. Our set of volunteers will constantly update the
necessary action plan and monitor the progress in order to get the results throughout. The
experts from other NGOs and government organisations will be asked for help to make us
know how efficiently our program is running. The people who are provided the rehabilitation
centre, their physical and psychological development will be constantly tried to be evaluated.
Assessment programs based on different scales like education, vocational skills, traditional
practices, everything will be taken care of.

11MIGRATION PLAN
The resources gained from internal and external service providers
The internal factors like housing, infrastructure provided, health and hygiene, education
facilities, vocational training tasks, the medication facilities provided, the continuous
evaluation programs considered, will be taken into account for the internal factors. For the
external factors, the tasks like gaining help from NGOs, business organizations, monetary
donations required from them all will be given importance to. The government and non-
government organizations will be asked for future help, where more and more economic
support as well as expertise support from those sister organizations will be asked for. The
organizations will be asked for more help in providing employment opportunities for the
skilled people as well as youth, educational institutions will be asked for providing training
and development programs for the children and youth. Women and old age care will be
provided through experts who have worked alongside these refugees or migrants for a
number of years.
