Towards a Future of Dignity for All
Higher Education for Students from Conflict Regions: Japan-Turkey Partnership

As GRM Program aims for interdisciplinary approach and solutions-based research, this joint workshop brings together academia and civil society to create opportunities in higher education for students from conflict and marginalized regions.
The workshop is a joint effort with civil societies organizations in Turkey to draw upon the accumulated experiences developed by the Global Resource Management Program, GRM, at Doshisha University, as well as those of Turkish NGO "IHH" and "UDEF",
in order to utilize potential/available resources for collaborative efforts to enhance and encourage higher education opportunities for students from conflict-affected regions.
