IIE’s Crisis Response
IIE deploys global, holistic crisis response to students, scholars, and artists where and when it’s needed most. Your support helps deploy emergency grants, secure long-term safe work placements, and provide life-changing scholarships.
LATEST NEWS:
Currently, we are mobilizing resources to deploy emergency grants to students from Libya, Morocco, Sudan, and Ukraine who are enrolled in U.S. higher education institutions. These grants will enable students facing financial distress to remain safely enrolled in their academic institutions.
In the days ahead, we will continue to provide long-term support to as many students, scholars, and artists as possible who are experiencing forced displacement, persecution, and financial instability due to crises in their home countries.
Join our community of supporters to create a more just and peaceful world.
