Announcing JEiE Special Issue on Refugees and Education, Part II
We are pleased to announce the publication of Journal on Education in Emergencies, Volume 5, Number 2, Special Issue on Refugees and Education, Part II!
We present five research articles and three book reviews in the second part of our double issue on refugees and education. This second part complements the first with articles that focus on opportunities and outcomes in refugee education as they connect to rights, funding actors, literacy, belonging, and teacher development.
Three themes emerge across these contributions. First is the importance of understanding refugee education at a variety of levels. The authors show the diverse ways that global laws, policies, and approaches are mobilized, interpreted, and experienced at a national and local level. Second, the articles in this issue underscore the need to account for economic, social, and cultural dimensions of education. They demonstrate the ways in which laws, schools, teachers, and donors shape how these dimensions play out in the schooling experiences of young refugees. Third, these contributions showcase how much methodologically diverse research can help to improve refugee education.
Sarah Dryden-Peterson, Jo Kelcey, and S. Garnett Russell edited this special issue of JEiE.
