Ukrainian students need more housing support: Editorial

International students from Ukraine are experiencing housing challenges as they face increased costs of living with no support from their families, reports CTV News. President of the Ukrainian Students Club at Humber College Kebrija Leeks-Kottick says that moving in with a friend or couch surfing are some of the only options for students who cannot pay their rent or residence fees. While some institutions have individually responded to these kinds of concerns with bursaries, gift cards, or free or subsidized residence, University of Toronto Mississauga Assistant Professor Lilia Topouzova says that these kinds of initiatives need to be unified and supported at a federal level so that students can easily find information about the programs.
