She will be giving a speech on "Educating Syrian Refugee Children in a Time of War" in the Gary Ransdell Hall Auditorium (Room 1074) at 1:00, which is open to the public. This will be a swipeable event. 

 

Assistant Secretary Richard is the lead person in the U.S. government dealing with refugee issues globally. She will be speaking on the steps the U.S. is taking to help Syrian refugee children displaced by war continue their education and the challenges the students and the donor community face in doing so. Her remarks will be followed by a Q&A session, ending at approximately 2:00.

 

Co-sponsored by the Office of International Programs and the College of Education and Behavioral Sciences, Ms. Richard¹s speech will be the first event in this year's "Diplomacy on the Hill"series.
