On the 20th of June, on World Refugee Day, UNESCO, in collaboration with key partners, presents an online event highlighting the paramount importance of inclusion for refugees and other displaced populations.

This event serves as a platform for UNESCO and its partners to advocate for collective efforts to include and integrate refugees and other displaced populations within the higher education system. It recognizes higher education institutions as vital bridges connecting humanitarian action to the development agenda, emphasizing their roles and responsibilities and the significance of adequate inclusion policies.

Through informative discussions, interactive sessions, and shared experiences, this event seeks to inspire and empower participants to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for refugees and displaced populations within the realm of higher education. We aim to strengthen the collective response to this global challenge by fostering dialogue and collaboration.
