Dear Jenelle,
Yes, other universities are offering online tertiary education to
refugees. Australian Catholic University, Open Universities Australia
and the Association of Jesuit Colleges (in the United States) are
collaborating on a project to offer online education to refugees on the
Thai-Burma border. Please find attached an overview of what we are
doing and an address that I gave in Denver in 2006 about the project. I
would welcome the contact details of the person who is coordinating the
online education through the Dundalk Institute... Perhaps we can work
together?
Blessings,
Michael Smith SJ
Convenor
