We do so by delivering academic and professional development programming to a global cohort of students who have been affected by displacementas refugees, asylum seekers, IDPs, stateless, and beyondsupporting access to graduate degrees and advanced career opportunities. RLRH also creates opportunities for researchers with displacement backgrounds to lead primary and secondary research studies, from start to finish. RLRH’s team is comprised of colleagues who are deeply committed to advancing refugee leadership, the majority of whom have lived experience of displacement. Our network of staff, researchers, students, and other affiliates is made up of 1,400+ individuals across 80+ countries. RLRH has six active offices: our first was established in Nairobi in 2020, we have had an office at the University of Oxford since 2021, and we have since developed physical hubs in Kakuma refugee camp (Kenya), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Kampala (Uganda), and in the Oxfordshire community (UK). From October 2025 RLRH is funded to serve as a technical partner for the Mastercard Foundations Scholars Program network, advancing an ambitious global agenda to support displacement-affected learners to access 1,000+ graduate-level scholarships at partner universities around the world. RLRH provides expert guidance and implements specialised programmes to help these learners enter university, thrive on course, and pursue meaningful and enduring careers on completion of their degrees.

The AP team runs three hallmark programmes to support these prospective students: Graduate Horizons provides learners with comprehensive postgraduate application and admissions support, from selecting right-fit universities and scholarships to crafting compelling personal statements and research proposals. The programme offers hands-on workshops, intensive writing boot camps, one-to-one application feedback, dedicated office hours, and mentorship designed to maximise each student’s academic potential. RLRH actively advocates for students, working directly with universities to eliminate barriers that impede their progress. A complementary bridging programme that can be completed before or during Horizons is Graduate Admissions Essentials, a three-month self-guided programme designed by RLRH to help learners strengthen their academic and professional profiles across the core admissions areas that universities assess for postgraduate study. A wide range of thoughtfully curated resources are available, meeting learners where they are in their tertiary education journeys. Finally, RLRH Foundations: Refugee and Forced Migration Studies, is an intensive nine-module online course that supports students to develop academic skills in the Social Sciences. The interdisciplinary curriculum exposes learners to International Humanitarian Law, Anthropology, Political Theory, Gender Studies, International Relations, and more, preparing participants for study across a wide range of fields of interest.
