UNESCO Chair on Refugee Integration through Education, Language and Arts

Welcome! UNESCO RIELA stands for:

R - Refugee
I - Integration
E - through Education,
L - Languages,
A - and Arts

The UNESCO Chair supports learning from contexts which have long-term refugee and migratory experiences and where resilience has been developed, often in the face of overwhelming linguistic and cultural destruction.  Working with our cross-sectorial partners, we engage in research and advocacy for creative and artistic approaches to integration, which sustain linguistic and cultural diversity, foster creativity and intercultural capabilities and promote peace.
