Leveling the playing field for
refugee labour mobility
The Talent Bridge | Fair Migration Coalition is a collaborative network of service providers in Canada working together to strengthen refugee labour mobility. By aligning our specialized expertise across the full end-to-end international recruitment process, starting with employer onboarding, immigration services, relocation and settlement, our approach ensures high retention for employers and a positive international migration experience for candidates. By reducing fragmentation, closing gaps, and building shared infrastructure, we help transform individual efforts into coordinated pathways that deliver stronger, more durable outcomes for employers and international workers.
We are powered by the following organizations
Talent Beyond Boundaries Canada bridges the gap between Canadian employers facing labor shortages and qualified, displaced professionals. By leveraging a global database of skilled refugee talent, they provide end-to-end support—from interview preparation to comprehensive case management—ensuring a smooth journey from the initial application through to arrival in Canada.
MyBeacon streamlines the relocation process by helping candidates set up Canadian bank accounts before they even arrive, ensuring seamless money management and financial readiness from day one.
Fragomen delivers comprehensive corporate immigration expertise, helping employers and internationally recruited professionals navigate the often complex process of securing work permits, visas, and permanent residency. With global experience and specialized legal guidance, Fragomen supports a smooth, compliant, and efficient transition for talent relocating across borders.
Windmill Microlending empowers candidates by providing low-interest or interest-free loans designed to fund credential recognition, career advancement, and professional development, removing the financial barriers to achieving their full potential in Canada.
ThriveON guides candidates through every stage of the transition, from the initial job offer to long-term settlement, by providing critical insights into Canadian employment, living costs, and local conditions. By managing the first 30 days of arrival and prioritizing the well-being of the entire family unit, ThriveON ensures a seamless integration that reduces stress and fosters long-term retention.
Jumpstart Refugee Talent provides refugee-led coaching specifically designed to accelerate professional growth, moving beyond "survival" employment to help candidates secure meaningful careers that align with their true expertise.
Why we exist
The Coalition exists to help level the playing field, so displacement is not a barrier to fair employment access, safe hiring, and meaningful work. Across today’s migration systems, refugees and forcibly displaced people are too often excluded from labour mobility pathways not because they lack skills or experience, but because systems are fragmented, access is uneven, and processes are designed to minimise risk rather than enable opportunity. At the same time, employers face complexity, uncertainty, and limited support when trying to hire internationally trained talent in ways that are ethical, compliant, and sustainable.
We exist to close that gap, aligning people, systems, and expertise so fair migration works better for everyone involved.
Our process
What makes us different
What sets the Coalition apart is how we approach labour mobility. Our model is end-to-end, not transactional, supporting people and employers across the full journey rather than at a single point of intervention. It is coordinated, not duplicative, aligning specialized organizations so expertise is shared and gaps are reduced rather than recreated.
We are human-centred without losing systems credibility, balancing dignity, protection, and lived experience with rigour, accountability, and programme integrity.
We are also built for retention, integration, and long-term outcomes, not just placement, because fair migration succeeds only when people are supported to stay, contribute, and belong.
