Universities struggle to survive after a decade of war Ten years into a civil war that has forced more than half of Syria’s population to flee their homes, the country’s higher education system is broken and Syrian universities are struggling to survive, according to Syrian academics and other education experts, writes Samar Kadi for Al-Fanar Media. Speaking at a recent online workshop titled “Higher Education in Syria After a Decade of War”, organised by the European Union-funded EDU-Syria programme and the German Academic Exchange Service, the panel members said Syrian universities faced a myriad of challenges. These include poor infrastructure, outdated curricula, unqualified teaching staff, absence of research resources and academic freedom, insecurity and lack of funds and international exchange.
