Including and Educating Syrian Refugees in National Education Systems: The Case of Lebanon

 

This policy paper draws on our long-term research in Lebanon to examine advantages and challenges of including refugees in national schools, particularly using a second shift model.

We demonstrate how addressing challenges of quality, social connection, and sustainability requires focus on building relationships among nationals and refugees, enabling teachers to access the professional training they seek, and global financing commitments to the shared responsibility of educating refugees.
