Summary Note "What is the relationship between education and those seeking asylum or refuge? What is the impact of education being marginalized during conflict situations? Drawing on international research in numerous countries, including Thailand, North Korea, Lebanon, Africa, the USA and the UK, the contributors consider the provision of education to refugees and asylum seekers in their homeland or in host countries. They also analyze the internal and external factors affecting educational provision during and after emergencies. Each chapter contains a summary of key points and issues to enable easy navigation, key contemporary questions to encourage active engagement with the material and an annotated list of suggested reading to support further exploration." - Back cover.
