Support mechanisms for exiled students in Higher Education. Germany.

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In this document, we present the support mechanisms for refugee students at HEI in Germany, according to responses collected through an online questionnaire survey of these institutions. The domains covered by the survey relate to skills recognition, capacity building and civic engagement. The analysis also mentions the most common difficulties experienced by institutions in their work with this specific audience, as well as their suggestions for more sustainable and continuous work. In this particular national context, while the dimensions of skill recognition and capacity building seem to have already been developed and implemented in the universities surveyed, there are still gaps in terms of implementing civic engagement mechanisms.
