The next step for refugee students

What is WURth-while
WURth-while is a project for refugee students who are currently waiting for legal status or have been granted temporary residence permits. It offers them the opportunity to participate in a variety of courses offered by WUR free of charge. This can be a great opportunity for students who are currently “on hold” in emergency shelters, refugee centres or in their new homes.
