Beneficiaries
More than 122 million people are displaced globally—and nearly half of them are children. Access to education is drastically falling short of what they deserve. Yet education is not just a basic right—it is a vital pathway to stability, opportunity, and leadership. Through dedicated scholarships, we will provide refugee and displaced students with access to a world-class education—empowering them to rebuild their lives and lead the transformation of their communities.
We hope to raise enough funds to support scholarships for refugee and displaced students to join our community in August 2026. The college is committed to responding to regional conflict crises. As a world leading pre-university college and a founding member of an international education movement – the United World Colleges, it is uniquely placed to respond quickly to ensure the world’s most promising youth are not hindered by conflict and war and receive the education they deserve.
