Open Learning Initiative

The OLIve weekend program is dedicated to creating a safe and inclusive learning space within a university setting for people who have experienced displacement, including asylum seekers and those with refugee status. It is run by Open Education, a non-profit organization located at the premises of Central European University (CEU).

We recognise that there are currently large numbers of people fleeing the war in Ukraine who are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance. We understand that continuing or starting education may not be at the forefront of their thoughts. However, if and when those who have arrived in Hungary from Ukraine (or elsewhere) wish to continue studying, OLIve will welcome them offering, as we have since 2016, education, solidarity, and community.

Please write to Ian Cook: Ian_Cook@openeducation.group if you are interested in studying at OLIve and we will do our best to accommodate you.
