Message to the Community on Earthquakes in Afghanistan

On behalf of the U of T community, I wish to extend deepest sympathies to all those affected by the destructive earthquakes in Afghanistan over the weekend.

No students are currently registered as being in Afghanistan, and we are not aware of any of our faculty or staff currently in the country, but many in our community have strong ties to the area. We have reached out directly to offer support to students from the region who are studying at U of T, as well as faculty, staff and librarians with known connections.

We encourage affected members of our community to make use of the academic and personal support resources below.

Thank you for supporting one another during this difficult time.
