The European Union (EU), member States of the EU, international organisations and European institutions are carrying out a number of actions to improve access to higher education and integration in European societies for refugee students and researchers.

To improve and complete existing initiatives, participants who took part in activities of the inHERE project invite European societies and their policymakers to take long term actions, aiming at fostering the insertion of refugees in higher education systems, and an open and inclusive research. Refugees’ integration is a global challenge that cannot be faced only at local or national level, but must be considered at supranational level, such as European Union level for example, an entity with the power to speak up globally.

inHERE recommendations are downloadable in 4 different languages (English, French, Italian and Spanish) on the project website.

inHERE is implemented by a consortium including UNIMED (leader), Campus France, the European University Association (EUA), the University of Barcelona, the La Sapienza University in Rome, and UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) (associate partner).
