Education Pathways

OSUN-supported education pathways provide opportunities for marginalized populations to access higher education, build communities of learning, and accumulate university course credits.

Education Pathways

    Developing initiatives that increase access to higher education for adolescents in Palestinian high schools and at TSI, a pioneering early college in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan
  • Consortium for the Liberal Arts in Prison
    The Bard Prison Initiative established the Consortium for the Liberal Arts in Prison with support from the Open Society Institute to facilitate the establishment of new college-in-prison program-building across the US, calling for those programs to be of the highest academic integrity, ambition, and rigor.
