Presentation - 'Ways in Which German Universities Have Helped New Germans and Refugees Resettle: Implications and Promising Practices for New Americans in Buffalo, NY' - April 17

Please join master's students from the higher education and student affairs administration program (HESAA) on Monday, April 17, at 7:00 p.m. in the Campbell Student Union Social Hall as they discuss and reflect on their three-week study-abroad course in Germany in January 2017.

HESAA students toured German universities in five cities as well as several resettlement agencies and communities. Their base was Dortmund—Sister City of Buffalo, New York. North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), which includes Dortmund, received nearly 150,000 refugees in 2015. Dortmund, approximately the same size as Buffalo, has one of the largest refugee concentrations in the world. Please join us at this event as we discuss promising practices and exchange ideas from individuals involved in resettlement efforts in Western New York.
