Listen to the experiences of students, faculty, and practitioners regarding displaced student education and strategize to create a more inclusive campus.

Curious about how GW currently supports—and can further support—students from displaced and refugee backgrounds? Join GW’s Refugee Educational Advancement Lab (REAL) and No Lost Generation for a dynamic conversation on fostering a more inclusive campus. Hear from a distinguished alumna with a refugee background, faculty from the Immigration Clinic, Human Rights Clinic, and GSEHD’s DEI program, as they discuss ongoing efforts and new opportunities for student support.
