Technical Advice

The Global Task Force and its members will provide technical advice to stakeholders to expand existing refugee education pathways programs and develop new ones. When a request for technical advice is received, the Secretariat will draw on the expertise of Global Task Force members, the Community of Practice (CoP), and the Minimum Standards on Complementary Education Pathways to provide the appropriate assistance.

Any institution that offers or supports third-country education pathways may join the Global Task Force CoP. As a member, you may request technical advice from the Global Task Force and other CoP members.
