Solidarity funds for researchers and students in danger
ULB has a strong tradition in its DNA of welcoming members of the academic community from countries in conflict or countries that violate fundamental rights. It has regularly taken a public stance in defense of academic freedom. In some countries, the very right to learn and study is jeopardized. This is why ULB has developed numerous initiatives and solidarity actions to defend academic freedom and the right to study, values that are dear to the institution.
Khaled al-Assad Solidarity Fund
The Université libre de Bruxelles has set up a solidarity fund to support researchers who can no longer carry out their work in their home countries, where they are exposed to risks due to the content of their research or the free expression of their opinions.
Bulles d'air (Breathing space) Programme
ULB has decided to grant short-term funding (maximum 3 months) to academics who are no longer able to carry out their activities in their home country, due to a situation of internal or international conflict.
