The Canterbury Migrants Centre (CMCT) was established in 2010 to fill a void in the city's services. Its main roles are to co-ordinate services and to help migrants settle into life in Christchurch. CMCT caters to all migrant groups/agencies and acts as an platform for networking on integration, providing information on settlement matters, health, community groups’ support, education, and other useful information presented in several languages. CMCT runs capacity building programme, physical exercise classes and English classes for a wider multicultural community in Christchurch and Canterbury.
