Tell Me About The Award:

In the face of ongoing conflicts, violence, human rights violations, and climate change, a significant number of women scientists are forced to leave their homes and countries. Many of them are not able to resume their studies after experiencing displacement.

Also, the Women in Science Displacement Outreach Master’s Program (OWSD WISDOM) is a new initiative addressing the challenges these women encounter.

OWSD (UNESCO) has partnered with two universities in Jordan and Türkiye to offer fully-funded master’s degree scholarships to those women who have sought refuge in those countries.
