Universities and higher education institutions are actively involved in welcoming and supporting refugees and migrants. Concrete measures have been put in place, such as free access to certain procedures and enrolment as a free student. Special reception desks offer a one-stop shop to meet the needs of refugees. French language courses, administrative assistance and material support are offered to facilitate their integration. Specific programmes, such as the one at IHECS, combine language learning and professional training.
