Learning in displacement: Briefing paper on the right to education of internally displaced people

Displacement lasts 20 years on average. This means displaced children's education cannot wait until solutions are found. To address this issue, the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) at the Norwegian Refugee Council has issued two briefings on displaced children's right to education. This paper introduces a series of case studies looking at education for IDPs. It examines the international human rights legal framework for guaranteeing their education, focusing on issues such as non-discrimination.
