Summary
Anyone looking for inspirational examples of dedication, perseverance, resilience and strength of character should look no further than the students and teachers featured in this year’s report on refugees and education.
From Ecuador to Jordan, from Iran to Ethiopia, these young refugees and the adults who support them realize how much living a life in dignity and preparing for solutions depend on access to full and formal quality education.
The gap between refugees and their peers is still wide, especially at the higher levels of education. Given the continued rise in the overall number of the world’s forcibly displaced, keeping education enrollment rates steady is no small feat.
