Ci-RES project

With the number of refugees increasing every year, Algeria has in recent years become a land of immigration and asylum, and in 2019 Algerian universities registered more than 5,000 refugee students on average. In order to face this crisis situation, it became urgent to take over this vulnerable group, which shows an unfavorable situation due to the lack of clear national regulations in favor of their integration into higher education in Algeria, which called for the guardian ministry to adopt ways to integrate this group within the framework of international agreements and this by participating in the Ci project -RES.
Ci-RES is a project within the framework of the Erasmus + projects funded by the European Union in its second part related to research and capacity building in scientific research, and the project includes members from national universities (University of Ouargla - University of Setif - University of Bejaia - Tizi Ouzou University) and European universities from France And Spain and Italy.
It is a structural national project, as the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research is a key partner in it.

As this project aims mainly to develop policies on higher education and to strengthen the governance capabilities of the sector as well as the economic and social environment in general, Ci-RES aims to create institutional capacities to integrate refugees into higher education as it develops cooperation (university - university and university - community). The project is considered a first and special pilot experience that proposes in terms of reorganizing the organic and functional structure of higher education institutions partnering in the project in order to respond to the current problems of effective integration of refugees into higher education institutions and to develop normative and institutional mechanisms for the integration of this group in higher education.
Therefore, the Ci-RES project proposes both organizational and practical measures to improve university services at the level of participating universities as well as at the ministry level in order to ensure educational, psychological, social, and professional support for refugees. Distance training, direct training, and competency development are provided to the target groups of the project, faculty members, and administrators working at the reception offices of refugee students, to ensure the best. As well as developing other practices in legal, academic and administrative aspects. Training in Arabic and French will also support the social integration of refugees into university life.
Within this framework, practical workshops have been scheduled that will enable the three target groups to express their needs and propose concrete solutions through open doors for employment activities and intercultural dialogue. Members of civil society, NGOs, all actors, and journalists will participate in these outreach activities. In the end, concrete measures for integration will be proposed through the establishment of an office at the university vice-versa level responsible for the external relations of the universities. A practical guide and internal regulations for the integration of refugees at the university will also be allocated.
The University of Kasidi Merbah Ouargla, like the universities participating in Ci-RES, organized workshops on February 09, 2021, in the meeting rooms of the Faculty of Law and Political Science, headed by the project supervisor, Mr. Morad Korichi, deputy director in charge of external relations, and here he presents the university's policy in studying this project.
