From Camp to Campus Fall School (Academic Microcredit possible)
Leuven, Belgium
16-20 november 2026
The FWO project From Camp to Campus offers a week-long course on the challenges and opportunities associated with investing in refugees and newcomers by improving access to higher education, not only for refugees and migrants, but also for all students concerned with lifelong learning. For professionals working with refugees and migrants in academia, government, industry, NGOs, or related sectors, this is an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of how higher education can act as an agent of positive change in and for society. We will also explore how systems, attitudes, and procedures can create unintended hurdles that prevent vulnerable students, including native-born students, from developing their talent and potential for the benefit of society as a whole and make suggestions on how to remedy that.
