Faced with the humanitarian emergency unfolding in the Gaza Strip, in particular, and in the West Bank, due to the escalation of violence that began in October 2023 and which the International Court of Justice in The Hague has deemed plausible to be considered as genocide, the UAB Senate, on May 30, 2024, agreed to promote university hosting actions for the affected population.

The UAB's commitment to supporting university refuge, embodied in the Refuge Program for individuals seeking asylum, promoted by the Autonomous Solidarity Foundation (FAS), can serve as a solid framework for implementing this support for hosting as a safe avenue for refuge. In this context, the UAB aims to make it possible for students from Palestine, who have had to abandon their university studies due to the armed conflict—whether they are residents in Palestinian territories or refugees in neighboring countries—to resume their studies at our university.

To achieve this, in addition to the general #UABRefugi scholarships, this year it is deemed important to approve a specific call for applications to facilitate travel, accommodation, and enrollment at the UAB for Palestinian students starting in the 2024-2025 academic year.
