Podcasts by Education: needs, rights and access in displacement (FMR 60)
Education is one of the most important aspects of our lives – vital to our development, our understanding and our personal and professional fulfilment throughout life. In times of crisis, however, millions of displaced young people miss out on months or years of education, and this is damaging to them and their families, as well as to their societies, both in the short and long term. This issue of FMR includes 29 articles on Education, and two ‘general’ articles. FMR 60 contains 29 articles on ‘Education: needs, rights and access in displacement’, plus two ‘general’ articles on other topics. See more at: www.fmreview.org/education-displacement.
