Violence, conflict, persecution, injustice and democratic deficits continue to affect millions of people. There will be enduring repercussions that echo through generations. With a staggering 1 in 73 people displaced, according to the UN Refugee Agency, the impact of forced migration is felt locally and globally. At King's, we are committed to improving the lives of those affected by these injustices and addressing the forces that prevent international peace and security.

Through our flagship Sanctuary Programme, we are creating education-led pathways for displaced students and academics. Delivering free legal advice to asylum seekers and refugees. Conducting world-leading research on conflict resolution, sustainable peace, security, migration and borders. And exploring practical strategies to alleviate political polarisation — both within the University and beyond. Drawing together our expertise, service and partners, we aim to bring about both individual and systemic transformations for a more just and peaceful world.
