Work together to ensure refugees can access HE, UN adviser says
The international community needs to coordinate better and act more coherently to ensure more refugees are able to attend universities, according to a senior United Nations adviser. Khaled Khalifa, who represents the UN's refugee agency to countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), said the world was at risk of missing its  target of ensuring 15 per cent of refugees are in higher education by 2030 unless institutions work together. More coordination was key to ensuring progress across all the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Mr Khalifa  told Times Higher Education 's Global Sustainable Development Congress , hosted by King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia.
