Thankful for @CCECS_AUB for preparing for this journey and for @KingsCollegeLon, @lissdtp & @ESRC for funding my doctoral research in higher education & policy in conflict & crisis.

Young Syrian refugees are being invited to have their say & hopefully influence higher education policy in Lebanon, as part of a @KingsECS study by researcher @MatarMelissa.

Melissa's PhD is inspired by her experience working for King's PADILEIA project: https://t.co/dW3LKSenPZ

This decision from the #LebaneseAmericanUniversity is one out of the increasing attempts to limit freedom of speech and academic research in the country and the region.
All the support for the Centre for Lebanese Studies.

We regret LAU president's termination of our partnership after our statement against MEHE decision to close afternoon classes. We are deeply concerned about the increasing attempts to limit freedom of speech and academic research

"What mobilized people in their millions is not the lack of unity or patriotism, it is rather the lack of justice and socio-economic rights."

Aka "You see, son, this sense of burnout, it has nothing to do with contradictory institutional demands put on you, and some skills and a bit of self-care can fix it. And if it does not, well, what can we do?! we offered you a training! you can only blame yourself. Love."
