UWE won a CARA Pathfinder grant in March 2008 to help create a sustainable structure within the university and its federation where refugees, migrant workers and scholars at risk (SARs) can find support such as training, mentoring, work placement, professional development, and work shadowing. The main aim of the CARA Grant project, which ended in September 2008, was to identify existing and additional supporting structures, including in teaching and research, and set up a UWE Refugee & Migrant Support Project (RMS) that would address them. The Report presents some of the key findings of the fact-finding consultations, interviews, surveys and ways forward during the six-month period of the project: CARA PATHFINDER PROJECT REPORT SEPT. 2008
