The theme of this year’s Refugee Week Wales,  was 'Welcome'. Wales has a proud history of welcoming refugees from all over the world. Refugees are forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster often with no warning and cannot return to their country unless the situation that forced them to leave improves. This is different to economic migrants who have made the conscious decision to leave their country to seek a better life, but who are free to return home if they wish.  

  

I wish to send out a strong message that refugees and asylum seekers are welcome in Wales and that we are committed to supporting and enabling them to rebuild their lives and make a full contribution to society. Refugee Week Wales was an opportunity to promote this message across Wales, with well attended events which helped to strengthen links and understanding between asylum seekers and refugees and Welsh communities.    

  

The Welsh Government believes integration begins on day one of arrival. To help ensure asylum seekers and refugees feel welcome in Wales, the Welsh Government provides funding for the Welsh Refugee Council, British Red Cross and the Trinity Centre. These organisations provide help and guidance to people who have had to flee their homes, often leaving behind their friends and families and having to build a new life in a Wales. Funding is also provided for the Migration Services in Wales project which is led by the Welsh Refugee Council in partnership with the Centre on Migration, Policy and Society (COMPAS) and the Migration Observatory at the University of Oxford. This project aims to facilitate a uniform approach to migration across Wales, taking account of local needs.  The project held a very well received conference on 20 June, Migration in Wales: Developing Local Strategic Frameworks on Integration \- An International Learning Exchange Conference.  

  

In March 2016, following consultation with a wide variety of stakeholders including refugees and asylum seekers, the Welsh Government’s Refugee and Asylum Seeker Delivery Plan was published. It is aimed at supporting all refugees and asylum seekers, whatever route has led them to make Wales their home. Refugees and asylum seekers need our support as they adjust to their new lives and this Delivery Plan sets out our commitment to help them in this process. The Delivery Plan is a living document and will be reviewed regularly, particularly in light of the Syrian Resettlement Programme and other new schemes to support asylum seeking children.  

  

Over the past 7 months a number of Syrian refugees have been welcomed to Wales under the Syrian Resettlement Programme. I am very pleased at the welcome they have been given by local authorities, organisations and individuals in Wales. Many of the local authorities who have taken refugees have no previous experience of working with, and providing services to refugees but they have risen to the challenge in an exceptional manner.  

  

The next challenge facing Government and statutory and Third Sector organisations in Wales is the three new Home Office schemes involving asylum seeking and refugee children: ‘Children at Risk’ \- resettling children and adults from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region; ‘Lone Asylum Seeking Children from the Camps in Europe’; and the ‘National Transfer Scheme’, established to help resettle Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children who arrive in the UK across the four nations. A Children’s sub group of the Welsh Government’s Syrian Resettlement Scheme Operations Board has been established specifically to ensure co\-ordination for resettling refugee children and unaccompanied asylum seeking children across Wales. It will support local authorities in Wales, create additional capacity, skills and expertise so that they are better equipped to accommodate refugee and asylum seeking children.  

  

I will work with local authorities and the Third Sector to provide a partnership approach and to continue to provide a welcome to refugees and asylum seekers who come to Wales.

Thema Wythnos Ffoaduriaid Cymru eleni oedd 'Croeso'. Mae gan Gymru hanes balch o groesawu ffoaduriaid o bob rhan o’r byd. Mae ffoaduriaid yn cael eu gorfodi i adael eu mamwlad er mwyn dianc rhag rhyfel, erledigaeth neu argyfwng naturiol a hynny, yn aml iawn, heb rybudd, ac ni allant ddychwelyd i’w mamwlad hyd nes bydd y sefyllfa a’u gorfododd i adael wedi gwella. Maen nhw’n wahanol i weithwyr mudol sydd wedi gwneud penderfyniad bwriadol i adael eu mamwlad i chwilio am well bywyd ond sy’n rhydd i ddychwelyd i’w mamwlad pe baent yn dymuno gwneud hynny.  
  
Rwy’n dymuno anfon neges gref fod croeso i ffoaduriaid a cheiswyr lloches yng Nghymru, a’n bod wedi ymrwymo i’w cefnogi ac i'w galluogi i ailadeiladu eu bywydau a gwneud cyfraniad llawn i'r gymdeithas. Roedd Wythnos Ffoaduriaid Cymru yn gyfle i hyrwyddo'r neges ledled Cymru, gyda digwyddiadau a gafodd gynulleidfaoedd niferus ac a oedd yn gymorth i gryfhau cysylltiadau a'r ddealltwriaeth rhwng ceiswyr lloches a ffoaduriaid a chymunedau Cymru.     
  
Mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn credu bod integreiddio’n cychwyn ar y diwrnod pryd y byddant yn cyrraedd. Er mwyn i geiswyr lloches a ffoaduriaid gael teimlo bod croeso iddynt yng Nghymru, mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn rhoi cyllid i Gyngor Ffoaduriaid Cymru, y Groes Goch Brydeinig a Chanolfan y Drindod.  Mae’r mudiadau hyn yn rhoi cymorth ac arweiniad i bobl sydd wedi gorfod ffoi o’u cartrefi, ac sydd yn aml wedi gadael teuluoedd a ffrindiau y tu ôl iddynt ac wedi gorfod creu bywyd newydd yng Nghymru. Darperir cyllid hefyd i’r prosiect Gwasanaethau Mudo yng Nghymru dan arweiniad Cyngor Ffoaduriaid Cymru mewn partneriaeth â’r Ganolfan Mudo, Polisi a Chymdeithas (COMPAS) a’r Arsyllfa Fudo ym Mhrifysgol Rhydychen. Nod y prosiect yw ei gwneud yn haws i gael dull unffurf ledled Cymru o ymdrin â mudo, gan ystyried anghenion lleol.  Fe wnaeth y prosiect gynnal cynhadledd a gafodd gynulleidfa niferus ar 20 Mehefin, sef Mudo yng Nghymru: Datblygu Fframweithiau Strategol Lleol ar gyfer Integreiddio \- Cynhadledd Ryngwladol i Gyfnewid yr hyn a Ddysgwyd.   
  
Ym mis Mawrth 2016, ar ôl ymgynghori ag amrywiaeth eang o randdeiliaid, gan gynnwys ffoaduriaid a cheiswyr lloches, cyhoeddwyd Cynllun Cyflawni ar gyfer Ffoaduriaid a Cheiswyr Lloches. Ei nod yw cefnogi pob ffoadur a cheisiwr lloches, ni waeth sut y daeth Cymru’n gartref iddynt. Mae angen ein cymorth ar ffoaduriaid a cheiswyr lloches wrth iddynt ymaddasu i'w bywydau newydd, ac mae’r Cynllun Cyflawni hwn yn nodi ein hymrwymiad i’w helpu yn  y broses hon. Mae’r Cynllun Cyflawni’n ddogfen fyw, a chaiff ei hadolygu’n rheolaidd, yn enwedig yng ngoleuni’r Rhaglen Adsefydlu Syriaid a chynlluniau newydd eraill i gefnogi plant sy’n ceisio lloches.   
  
Dros y 7 mis diwethaf, mae nifer o ffoaduriaid o Syria wedi cael croeso yng Nghymru dan y Rhaglen Adsefydlu Syriaid. Rwy’n falch iawn o'r croeso a gawsant gan awdurdodau lleol, sefydliadau ac unigolion yng Nghymru. Mae llawer o’r awdurdodau lleol sydd wedi cymryd ffoaduriaid wedi gwneud hynny heb brofiad blaenorol o weithio gyda ffoaduriaid nac o ddarparu gwasanaethau iddynt, ond maent wedi derbyn yr her mewn modd eithriadol.  
  
Yr her nesaf i wynebu’r Llywodraeth, sefydliadau statudol a sefydliadau'r Trydydd Sector yng Nghymru yw’r tri chynllun newydd gan y Swyddfa Gartref sy’n ymwneud â phlant sy'n geiswyr lloches a phlant sy'n ffoaduriaid: ‘Plant mewn Perygl’ \- adsefydlu plant ac oedolion o ranbarth y Dwyrain Canol a Gogledd Affrica; ‘Plant sy’n Ceisio Lloches ar eu pen eu hunain o Wersylloedd yn Ewrop’; a’r ‘Cynllun Trosglwyddo Cenedlaethol’, a sefydlwyd i helpu i adsefydlu Plant sy’n Ceisio Lloches ar eu Pen eu Hunain ac sy’n cyrraedd y D.U., ledled y pedair gwlad. Mae is\-grŵp o Fwrdd Gweithrediadau Cynllun Adsefydlu Syriaid Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cael ei sefydlu’n benodol i sicrhau cyd\-drefniant ledled Cymru wrth adsefydlu plant sy’n ffoaduriaid a phlant sy’n ceisio lloches ar eu pen eu hunain. Bydd yn cefnogi awdurdodau lleol yng Nghymru i greu capasiti, sgiliau ac arbenigedd ychwanegol fel eu bod mewn sefyllfa well i letya plant sy’n ffoaduriaid a phlant sy’n ceisio lloches.  
  
Byddaf yn gweithio gydag awdurdodau lleol a’r Trydydd Sector i ddarparu dull partneriaethol ac i barhau i roi croeso i ffoaduriaid a cheiswyr lloches sy’n dod i Gymru.
