Higher Education Under Assault: Spotlight on IIE’s Scholar Rescue Fund
Committee on Human Rights
The Committee on Human Rights (CHR) engages regularly with many scientific and human rights organizations to exchange information, provide referrals, and advance our overlapping missions. One such partner is the Institute of International Education Scholar Rescue Fund (IIE-SRF).
At the May 2016 meeting of the CHR, James King, IIE-SRF Assistant Director, spoke to CHR members about IIE-SRF’s work, including its vital support of Syrian scholars during the 21st century’s worst humanitarian crisis.
