'Supporting displaced students beyond university' workshop

Looking to the future, and in line with the University of Edinburgh's role as a University of Sanctuary, register to attend our workshop to participate in a collaborative and practical discussion that will help future planning, service and support.

The workshop will focus on how to improve support for displaced students as they navigate life after university. It will explore key aspects of the transition, particularly employment and housing.
