External events
Wednesday, 24 April 2024, 2pm to 6pm
Sultan Nazrin Shah Centre, Worcester College, Walton St, Oxford OX1 2HB
Hosted by Refugee Studies Centre
Join us for this year’s University of Oxford Sanctuary Fair Part 1 on 24 April from 2-6 pm at Worcester College. This event aims to bring together different members of the University to better understand our commitment to being a University of Sanctuary and how to make this a reality across the intercollegiate university.
We welcome everyone to join us as we learn more about what being a University of Sanctuary means for all of us, and how students, faculty, and staff across different colleges and departments are committed to ensuring an inclusive culture for sanctuary seekers in the university and beyond. This will be our launch event in preparation for our 1st anniversary celebrations of being an accredited University of Sanctuary in May 2024.
We look forward to seeing you on 24 April at Worcester College.
