Hubs for Connected Learning Initiatives

The OSUN Hubs for Connected Learning Initiatives are expanding higher educational and research opportunities to areas affected by crisis and displacement.
Co-led by Bard College and Arizona State University, with BRAC University and the Princeton Global History Lab as key partners, the Hubs deliver high-quality, contextualized connected learning opportunities customized to meet learner needs in places as diverse as the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, Eastern Africa, and Asia. All programming is learner-centered, geared toward promoting livelihood pathways, and innovative in its use of technology to support participants in low-resource settings. 

What We Do

  • Teacher Professional Development
    Professional development for in-service teachers working with displaced individuals and those in marginalized host communities—including refugee camp settings— that builds out teacher mentoring and classroom action research opportunities.

  • Undergraduate Opportunities
    Higher education offerings in the form of a university preparatory program and interdisciplinary course clusters that result in transferable credits accumulation, official transcripts, and OSUN certificates of completion for students who have been unable to access a bachelor’s degree.
    Learn More
  • Community-Led Research
    A refugee- and host community-led research hub to support local training in qualitative and quantitative approaches and to develop locally-situated research. Research supports the Hubs’ wider advocacy efforts by raising awareness of the barriers and challenges that refugees face.
