WURth-while

We aim to enable refugees to continue developing themselves, as well as becoming part of the society. This is beneficial to the well-being of individual refugees as well as to society in general. Research shows that exclusion decreases the long-term chances for participation both in the labour market, and in other roles in society. WURth-while therefore aims to include refugees in the society by staying actively involved with their field of studies, with students and professors in Wageningen. The first evaluation confirms that WURth-while participants experienced various benefits of being included and welcomed at the University. In this way WURth-while helps newcomers to make constructive use of the waiting period.
