According to the UNHCR, access to university education and research is a fundamental part of the protection and inclusion strategy of a refugee. How do universities react to this situation and how should they address the challenge? ### Practical details The webinar **“Supporting students and scholars at risk: efforts and good practices of UNICA and CIVIS universities”** will take place online on 15 December 2021, from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm CET. The detailed programme of the webinar is available [here](/storage/files/programme-unica-sapienza-webinar-supporting-students-and-scholars-at-risk.pdf).
