A Refugee Crisis: The Role of Higher Education | Nahla Almbaid & Bo-Sung Kim | TEDxMacalesterCollege

Speakers Nahla Almbaid and Bo-Sung Kim discuss the role of higher education in alleviating the global refugee crisis. Nahla is a sophomore here at Macalester College. As a daughter of two Palestinian refugees who have used their education to become independent and help their families and communities, she strongly believes in the importance of higher education in alleviating the global refugee crisis. Nahla strongly believes that higher educational institutions have a moral role to play in helping restore confidence to the lives of refugees and has no doubt that today's refugees will be tomorrow's scientists, innovators, and builders of the new economy in the countries they will call home. Bo is a 2017 graduate of Macalester and is currently a Graduate Assistant in the Center for Study Away and will be attending the American University of Beirut beginning January 2018. She supports Mac students seeking study away opportunities and help them reflect upon their return. Bo is dedicated to improving public health policies and systems in areas of conflict or humanitarian crisis. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
