Book Review: Borderless Higher Education for Refugees: Lessons from the Dadaab Refugee Camps edited by Wenona Giles and Lorrie Miller

Spogmai Akseer reviews Wenona Giles and Lorrie Miller’s edited book, Borderless Higher Education for Refugees: Lessons from the Dadaab Refugee Camps, which offers interesting takeaways on how refugees view higher education as a transformative power in their lives. Giles and Miller and the various contributors to this book tackle the complicated issues of higher education for refugees head on. They demonstrate that it is necessary to provide higher education for refugees so that they will be able to navigate ongoing systems of inequality and overcome some of the social, political, and economic barriers they face.
