Voices of Refugee Youth: the impact of post-primary education in emergencies
This youth-centred longitudinal panel study focusses on the impact of post-primary education for refugees in Pakistan and Rwanda. The research was conducted in partnership with UNHCR and Jigsaw Education, and concluded in October 2023. This research was funded through the Dubai Cares Evidence for Education in Emergencies (E-Cubed) funding window, and links to UNHCR's efforts to support post-primary education for refugees and host communities.
The critical importance of post-primary education in emergencies is increasingly acknowledged within the global community. The Voices of Refugee Youth research study contributes to this evidence base, with a particular focus on the transitions of refugees from post-primary education to employment or future education opportunities.
The Voices of Refugee Youth research study was developed in response to these issues and designed on the basis of an initial scoping exercise carried out in Pakistan and Rwanda.
