摘要
Key Messages Waterloo Region's Local Immigration Partnership (WRIP) played a critical role in Waterloo Region's Syrian Refugee Resettlement Initiative. WRIP's autonomy, coupled with a strong sense of place-identity, meant it was an active partner in all stages of this resettlement initiative. Participants saw the WRIP as a local resource that maximized efficient communication and responsiveness.
