Threatened Scholars Integration Initiative

The Threatened Scholars Integration Initiative aims for the proactive integration of scholars forced to seek alternative teaching, research, or advanced study positions at OSUN institutions outside their home countries due to threat from authoritarian regimes, persecution for their views and identities, or other risks. The Initiative also provides affiliation and support for those who cannot relocate. The broad category of threatened scholars includes career academics, graduate students, and independent scholars, as well as writers, intellectuals, and artists whose work relates to teaching and learning, research, and the public mission of higher education.
