Our expertise

“We are subject matter experts with a passion for evidence and practical solutions.”

Our team has multi-disciplinary experience in the social sector. We have worked within and alongside community organisations, academia, government policy makers, consultants and international development organisations.

Lighthouse Partnerships combines our expertise as practitioners in front-line service delivery and community development with research and policy skills to analyse issues, challenges and opportunities from a range of perspectives. 

This multi-sector experience enables the team at Lighthouse Partnerships to navigate the complex system of migration management through a variety of lenses, recognising that each party has a set of assumptions that influence the way they operate.

Lighthouse Partnerships has worked with people in situations of migration or displacement with a variety of different backgrounds and experiences. We are particularly experienced in working with: 

• people seeking asylum

• refugee communities

• young people, including unaccompanied and separated children

• people who have experienced forms of exploitation, trafficking or forced marriage

• migrant workers

• irregular migrants

• people in immigration detention

• survivors of sexual and gender-based violence

• LGBTIQA+ communities.
