The Institute of International Education (IIE) helps people and organizations leverage the power of international education to thrive in today’s interconnected world. IIE focuses on work that advances scholarship, builds economies, and promotes access to opportunity.
Through IIE’s Student Emergency Initiatives (IIE SEI), IIE provides students impacted by armed conflict or natural disaster with an opportunity to start or carry on their higher education to foster economic development, improve public health, and build safer communities in crisis-ridden countries. IIE SEI includes IIE’s Platform for Education in Emergencies Response (PEER), the IIE Syria Consortium for Higher Education in Crisis, the IIE-Julia Stasch Scholarship for Refugees, and the IIE Emergency Student Fund.
