Preparing HEIs in Southeastern Europe to support Researchers at Risk

This webinar is aimed at administrative staff as well as interested academics of universities in Southeastern Europe. It aims to raise their awareness and preparedness on hosting researchers at risk by sharing good practices, discussing possible challenges, and appropriate administrative answers.
