Webinar “Questioning the scholarly integration of refugee students beyond academia” 
This webinar focuses on the academic and social challenges faced by refugee students in their integration beyond the academic sphere. It aims to provide a platform for discussing the roles and responsibilities of higher education institutions in supporting these students, also considering that their actions face some limitations. The discussion will revolve around understanding the complexities of self-reported refugee students' experiences and exploring strategies for improving their integration into academic life and the society.
