Access to appropriate and relevant academic and skill-building resources for refugees has always been a challenge. The COVID19 pandemic only made the situation worse for refugees and refugee-focused organizations as it created barriers in their operations, rendering in-person workshops and trainings impossible.
Nonprofit organizations, program teams, and refugee-led organizations that focus on supporting refugees in their training, skill-development, and livelihoods are all invited to attend this expert talk with M-Shule, the Xavier Project and Open Society University Network, who will discuss their efforts to ensure that refugees access their basic human rights to education and to build their knowledge, skills, and livelihoods.
Panelists:
Edmund Page, Founder and CEO, Xavier Project
Rebecca Granato, Associate Vice President for Global Initiatives, Bard College and Director, OSUN Hubs for Connected Learning Initiatives
Phoebe Khagame, Head of Operations, M-Shule
