European Universities Launch Safe Space for Science Program

NDR Info Marseille 16d15d Impact 3

The University of Aix-Marseille has launched the Safe Space for Science program. The program aims to recruit and host US-based scientists within France. The initiative seeks to create a dedicated environment for scientific collaboration and research. No specific funding amounts or immediate start dates were provided. The program aims to provide an alternative for researchers facing professional or personal difficulties in their home countries. One participant, a political scientist from Minneapolis, cited the program as an escape from her previous environment. It specifically targets researchers feeling unsettled by political climates in the US, such as climate scientists. One researcher, Lisa, noted that while her work on South American dictatorships caused friction with the Trump administration, she does not identify with the term 'refugee' as she did not face physical violence.

The program addresses the need for academic security for those facing non-physical threats to their research. The initiative aims to provide refuge for researchers, such as climate scientist James, who feel uncomfortable working in the United States under the Trump administration. The program is currently in a provisional setup phase with some participants still transitioning from the United States. The movement is described as a gradual process of scientific migration to Europe.
