Hello everyone, I would like to introduce you to a new website that has been launched by Laura-Ashley Wright and Robyn Plasterer: the Refugee Education Initiative (REI). Website: www.refugeeeducation.com The REI is an international forum which aims to link together researchers, academics, professionals and the general public on issues related to refugee studies and forced migration. While there are many existing blogs, networks, websites and initiatives focussed on these topics, the REI wishes to act as a knowledge hub, where individuals can access a convenient and central place to obtain information on: * Current Events and Policy Issues * Relevant Websites, Blogs, Mailing Lists and Listservs * Non-Academic Resources: films, books, art, music * Academic Resources: journals, publications, etc * Work and Volunteer Opportunities * Academic Programs and Scholarship Opportunities What is also great is the chance for students to publish their work, or blog about international experiences. We hope to link students to other established networks existing in Canada and abroad. If you know of NGOs with internship/work opportunities, have research/resources to share or would like more information, please do not hesitate to contact us at [log in to unmask] We have just launched the new website, and will be adding resources daily.
