The University of Central Lancashire is committed to supporting people in crisis and conflict. We work closely with the Council for at-risk Academics (Cara) and are proud to be part of the Cara Scholars at Risk UK Universities Network.

Cara provides urgent help to academics in immediate danger and those forced into exile. In partnership universities, Cara offers practical and financial help, and assistance to reach a place of safety. This support makes it possible for academics at risk to connect, during their period of exile, with colleagues within the wider academic and scientific communities, facilitating collaboration, enhancing skills and ending isolation, so that, when the moment comes, they are equipped to go back and help re-build their societies. In addition, we support our academic community in undertaking postgraduate study through fully funded places - this year (21/22) we funded 2 places.

The University of Central Lancashire offers sanctuary to those academics who are at risk in their own countries, and as part of the Cara Fellowship programme provides financial support, fee waivers and other support for Cara beneficiaries. Fellowships help academics in danger to escape to a safe place where they can continue their work.

For more information, please visit the Cara website or contact the Vice Chancellor’s Office.
