The University of London’s Refugee Law Initiative has recently launched an exciting new online short course ‘Refugees in the 21 st Century’ . This Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) is freely accessible to all. Taking a global perspective, the course provides insight into the refugee phenomenon as one of the most complex, compelling and (arguably) misunderstood features of the 21 st century. No prior knowledge or experience in the refugee field is required to take this course and as such, the course is for everyone.

Case Study: Child Participation and Accountability in Save the Children Colombia’s Programming Research conducted by the Refugee Law Initiative (RLI), as part of the RECAP project , has been instrumental in developing Save the Children Colombia’s approach to child participation and accountability for displaced populations. In October 2019, the RLI published a report , drawing on research exploring how Save the Children Colombia engages migrant, refugee and displaced children in decisions about their activities, programmes and planning across the country.

The University of London (UoL) is delighted to have signed an agreement with the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), which enables eligible NRC employees working globally to obtain a 10% bursary for UoL's MA in Refugee Protection and Forced Migration Studies, with academic direction by the School of Advanced Study.

  RLI is pleased to be partnering with Commonwealth Scholarships to offer five full scholarships for the October 2019  intake to our MA in Refugee Protection and Forced Migration Studies. Full details below (click on image to access links).
