Beneficiaries
More than 123 million people worldwide have been forced from their homes by conflict, persecution and violence and nearly half are children. Access to education is drastically falling short of what they deserve, yet it is also the most powerful path back to stability, opportunity and hope. Through dedicated scholarships, we will ensure that conflict and displacement are not a barrier to education - empowering those affected to rebuild their lives and shape a better future.
We hope to raise enough funds to support scholarships for young people affected by conflict and displacement to join our community in August 2027. As a world leading pre-university college and founding member of the United World Colleges, an international education movement, we are uniquely placed to ensure promising young people are not hindered by conflict and war, and receive the education they deserve.
