Beskrivning
This volume examines how Governmental agencies, non-profit organizations and educational institutions are mobilizing their resources to promote inclusion of refugees and internally displaced people. It explores the grass root campaigns that are working towards participation and full involvement for disadvantaged groups, and towards equitable distribution of opportunities in both home and host countries. The case studies included emphasize the importance of effective cooperation and coordination across multi-sectoral responses, and the need to take into account the social and economic dimensions of inclusion. Providing educators at all levels with a research and evidence based understanding of the educational opportunities and challenges facing refugees (both children and adults), this important book considers related and overlapping issues such as equality, equity, power, privilege, identity, rights, and pluralism, and addresses the relevant issues at the theory, policy, and practice levels.

Recensioner i media

If education is truly the passport to the future, what happens to those who are displaced and without access to a structured learning environment? Within the field of higher education, student mobility is widely discussed and analyzed but the forced movement of people and the significant impact to their ability to access education, is not. Contributors to Strategies, Policies and Direction for Refugee Education tackle this critical question and provide the reader with an in-depth analysis of the complexities at play; the practical challenges in place and an illuminating discussion as to possible solutions and approaches.
