Fellowships for threatened scholars around the world

The Institute of International Education’s Scholar Rescue Fund (IIE-SRF) is the only global program that arranges, funds, and supports fellowships for threatened and displaced scholars at partnering higher education institutions worldwide, including inside their home regions. At the heart of IIE-SRF is the idea that each scholar we support is a beacon of hope in our world.

Building upon IIE’s century-long legacy of assisting students and scholars under threat, IIE-SRF has since 2002 supported 1,147 scholars from 62 countries in partnership with 513 host institutions in 59 countries.

Together we can make a difference. One life, one voice, one idea at a time.
