A message from STAR Equal Access Activists.
Today is World Access to Higher Education Day, a global day of action to raise awareness about the inequalities people face when trying to access higher education.
At STAR we believe that access to higher education is a right, not a privilege.

📣 Join us for our Equal Access Network meet & greet!
We are a group of past, current and prospective students, passionate about making education accessible to students with asylum/refugee backgrounds, and anyone facing barriers to access education due to their immigration status.
We are excited to invite you to our first (virtual) meeting. This is a very friendly and casual meeting to connect, ask questions and find out how you can be involved in the network! The meeting is open to anyone who is seeking asylum or identifies as being from a refugee background.
***The event will be on Zoom and you will need to register beforehand using the link in our bio.***
We look forward to seeing you there! 🤩
Students are joining the call to #CloseTheBarracks. Join us on 12 March and stand against the Home Office’s inhumane and inhospitable accommodation for people seeking asylum bit.ly/3uJgvUQ
