Communities and schools are shaped and strengthened by the migration of people and ideas across the globe. The City University of New York - Initiative on Immigration and Education (CUNY-IIE, pronounced as "eye") aims to develop multimodal resources that center the strengths of immigrant communities that include undocumented, refugee, and asylum-seeking members. At CUNY-IIE, educators, researchers, and local leaders work together to learn about, from, and with immigrant communities, act in ways that center our shared humanity regardless of legal status, and advocate for equitable educational policies for all, regardless of immigration status.
