Launch of the uOttawa Refugee Hub Fellowships for Refugee Leaders
The University of Ottawa is delighted to launch the uOttawa Refugee Hub Fellowships for Refugee Leaders. In partnership with the Northpine Foundation, the Fellowship builds on uOttawa's rich history of innovative programs aimed at enhancing the lives of refugees on campus, in Canada and around the world. It also addresses a critical gap that can get in the way of refugees realizing their full potential as leaders in Canadian society and globally. Reflecting on his journey as a refugee, Khyber Farahi, Senior Project and Program Officer at uOttawa Refugee Hub-Pathways International, writes about the importance of the initiative.
