The University of Sassari follows with profound concern what is happening in Gaza, where in particular children and young people are experiencing an unprecedented humanitarian tragedy.

Faithful to its mission to promote knowledge, education and peace, the University of Sassari, in collaboration with the Ersu of Sassari and the student groups, has decided to activate a reception and support program aimed at Palestinian students and students, so that their training courses can continue in a safe, inclusive and supportive context.

The program includes hospitality for 10 students. In particular:

  • the assignment of 10 scholarships value of 4,000 euros each ;
  • the exemption from paying university fees;
  • the free supply of textbooks;
  • the linguistic support guaranteed by the University Linguistic Center;
  • hospitality and free meals for 10 students or students at the structures of the Arsu of Sassari.

As an university and as an entity for the right to university study we cannot remain indifferent. The university mission is to train, welcome and offer growth opportunities. For this we express our proximity to the new generations, which see their future denied by the war "Declare the rector,  Prof. Gavino Mariotti , and the president of Arsu Sassari,  Dr. Daniele Maoddi .

Study and live in Sassari - they add - will be able to represent for these young people not only an opportunity for personal and academic growth, but also a concrete act of hope and construction of a different future ”.
