Deadline: 19 June 2020
To mark World Refugee Day on June 20 2020, Kiron is hosting the Virtual Refugee Conference – AMPLIFY NOW!
Too often, international and domestic conferences about forced migration lack representation and inclusivity, and present refugees as passive recipients, not as potential change-makers and innovators. They will bring together refugees, NGOs, academics and employers for talks, discussions and collaborative and results-oriented exchange.
The aims of this global conference are:
- to give refugees an active role in integration and representation,
- to amplify innovative solutions that elevate new learning and strengthen communities,
- to enable an open exchange between all stakeholders, and
- to open up and promote social change for all.
Theme
Take part and join this community of changemakers on June 20th for meaningful discussions around this year’s theme: AMPLIFY NOW! Elevating new learning and strengthening communities.
Kiron Open Higher Education (gGmbH) is a nonprofit that combines digital innovation and strategic partnerships to empower refugees worldwide and underserved communities in the Middle East through online learning opportunities.
