Convening partners from diverse sectors, the second annual IIE Scholar Rescue Fund (IIE-SRF) Forum, "Scholar Voices and University Action," will address the urgent need to support scholars who have been silenced at home by censorship, violence, and other human rights abuses.
IIE-SRF will dedicate the Forum’s first day to best practices among universities that are offering safe haven to scholars. The second day will give a platform to the scholars, who will share their experiences and discuss several of the key crises of 2015. It will also explore the role of the university in responding to higher education emergencies.
