IIE's Scholar Rescue Fund (SRF) provides fellowship grants for scholars whose lives or careers are threatened in their home countries. The fellowships support temporary academic positions at universities, colleges and other higher learning institutions in safe locations anywhere in the world. Fellowship periods of up to one calendar year are intended to allow the scholars to continue their important work pending improvement in conditions allowing their safe return home. Fellowships may be renewed for a second and final year. Since 2002 we have received more than 2000 requests for assistance from scholars in 100 countries. 342 scholars from 43 countries have been awarded fellowships and placed at institutions in 38 countries around the world.
