I came across the work of our guest today, Luma Mufleh, back in 2019. Even then, I was enchanted by the story of how she created Fugees Academy, a successful private school in Georgia for refugee children who are too often overlooked and underserved in traditional district schools. But I recently finished reading Luma's newly released book, Learning America: One Woman's Fight for Educational Justice for Refugee Children, which joins the story of Fugees Academy with her own powerful story as an immigrant, entrepreneur, soccer coach, school founder and change maker, and wife and mother. Truthfully, Learning America is one of the most extraordinary books I have read in awhile, and it should definitely be on the top of your list of books to read this summer.  Fugees Family Luma Mufleh's 2017 TED Talk

Refugee camps in Greece remain overcrowded and unhygienic beyond imagination, but until Covid-19 struck new education centres were a daily lifeline for children who had fled conflict and persecution, many arriving after perilous journeys from Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq. This episode provides a glimpse into life in those camps and talks to the team behind Theirworld’s new report that offers a way forward out of the refugee education crisis. Sarah talks to organisations making a difference there, and to two refugees who shed their personal light on what those on the islands are going through. Sarah talks to Maysa Jalbout, author of the report ‘Finding Solutions to Greece’s Refugee Education Crisis’; Justin van Fleet, president, Theirworld; Abi Hewitt, CEO and co-founder of Love Welcomes; Tanko Doris Laure, refugee from Cameroon; Sanda Leslie, refugee from Cameroon; Josie Naughton, chief executive officer, Help Refugees; Naoko Imoto, education chief UNICEF Partnership Office in Greece.   Theirworld is a major funder of education on the Greek Islands – with the support of the People’s Postcode Lotteries and our many individual supporters – in partnering with Education Cannot Wait, UNICEF, UNHCR and many local charities and groups.

At this week's Round Table, Inica, Julianna, and Olivia discuss global refugee education with Chrystina Russell, Executive Director of the visionary Global Education Movement (GEM) at Southern New Hampshire University. Even BEFORE the COVID-19 pandemic, over 70 million people were displaced worldwide, with over 25 million people living as refugees. Currently, just 3% of refugees are in higher education compared to 34% of the non refugee population globally. GEM was created to bring university education and employment pathways to refugees and traditionally underserved learners through a blended learning model that is all the more relevant at this time when much of the world has been forced to do remote learning. We had a rich conversation about refugees, what works and what's challenging about online learning, and what it will take to increase and improve learning opportunities for transient and vulnerable populations.

This is an episode of Behind the Pages - the podcast of the Journal on Education in Emergencies. Join us for these exciting and timely conversations with JEiE authors about their work on education in regions affected by crisis and conflict. Emergency relief prioritizes basic survival needs like food, water, medical aid, sanitation, and shelter. But increasingly some humanitarians have begun to think of education not only as capable of improving lives, but indeed as lifesaving. In "Asking 'Why' and 'How': A Historical Turn in Refugee Education Research” Christine Monaghan identifies key shifts in the motivation behind refugee education through the lens of a historical perspective. Drawing from oral histories, interviews, and archival research, Monaghan constructs a narrative of “why” and “how” refugee education programming has become a form of immediate emergency response.
