The Migrant Wing of Bhartiya Samaj has been actively involved with the smooth settlement of the migrants since its inception. It assists the new settlers in finding suitable accommodation soon after their arrival. Bhartiya Samaj conducts workshops and seminars for migrants in cooperation with such agencies as WINZ and other organisations who are providing similar services. Our Wing educates about the job market, helps them prepare CVs and provides them documents containing useful information regarding legal issues, rights and duties of persons living in New Zealand and explains “do and don'ts” thereby enabling them to receive fair and equitable treatment from government and non-governmental agencies. |
