In response to the intensifying Syrian migrant crisis, IIE will be highlighting ways the higher education community can join efforts to support Syrian students and scholars.

Here are some recommended news articles on the Syria crisis and the role of higher education:

If your institution is interested in providing a Syrian student or scholar with safe haven to continue their studies or research, we encourage you to join the IIE Syria Consortium for Higher Education in Crisis.
