University Alliance for Refugees & At-Risk Migrants (UARRM)
University Alliance for Refugees & At-Risk Migrants (UARRM)’s mandate centers on higher education and vocational training for refugee and at-risk migrant students, threatened scholars (i.e., scholars fleeing conflict and/or repression), and, when relevant, members of their families.
The UARRM’s functions are five-fold:
-
Scope (map) existing efforts underway in the US by Action Area.
-
Centralize updated information through a dedicated webpage (forthcoming).
-
Communicate this information with interested partners inside and outside the Academy, helping to bring additional visibility to existing University-led efforts.
-
Bring together relevant parties to take action in these different areas.
-
Help expand and/or springboard promising initiatives.
The UARRM’s areas of work concentrate on the six “Action Areas” already undertaken or to be undertaken by university communities. It is understood that these Action Areas are and should continue to be mutually supportive. Each Action Area will be taken forward by champions -individuals who represent vested institutional partners.
