Community of Practice: Expanding Durable Solutions for Refugee Youth through Higher Education
Deadline: December 14, 2021
Global Task Force on Third Country Education Pathways, co-chaired by the OSUN Hubs for Connected Learning Initiatives, will host a series of virtual training sessions entitled “Expanding Durable Solutions for Refugee Youth through Higher Education" October 5 - December 14, 2021. The series launches a Global Community of Practice (CoP), sharing knowledge and building the capacity of state entities, post-secondary education institutions, associations, foundations, NGOs, INGOs, and refugee networks to design and implement legal pathways for refugee youth through higher education programs in third countries.
While sessions can be taken separately, we recommend that stakeholders who are interested in joining the CoP and implementing and/or expanding higher education pathways for refugees commit to attending all sessions. Sessions will be recorded, and recordings will be shared with everyone registered for the series.
