The UNESCO Chair hosted within the School of Education at the University of Glasgow seeks to develop a programme of multilingual knowledge exchange, research, training, information and documentation on the integration of refugees into new communities and how this can be promoted through languages and the arts. We work in collaboration with Glasgow Refugee, Asylum and Migration Network (GRAMNet) and its partners. Together, our aim is to promote creative, practical multilingual action for change at all levels of society to build capacity in research and action focused on fostering cultural expressions of heritage and diversity with displaced peoples, and academic freedom for those at risk.
