Majibu ya Elimu ya Ukraine

Tunasimama pamoja na watoto na vijana wa Ukraine ambao maisha yao yamepinduliwa usiku kucha.

 

Tunatoa wito kwa serikali na jumuiya ya kimataifa kuhakikisha kuwa elimu ya watoto na vijana inalindwa na kuheshimiwa wakati huu wa janga.

​

Taarifa ya REUK kufuatia uvamizi wa Ukraine

Tumesikitishwa na uvamizi wa Ukraine.

​

Katika kila migogoro, watoto na vijana ni miongoni mwa walioathirika zaidi. Shule zimefungwa au haziko tena mahali pa usalama, na haki ya watoto ya kujifunza na kucheza bila woga inaondolewa.

Tunaiomba serikali ya Uingereza kuanzisha kwa haraka njia zinazoweza kufikiwa, salama na za kisheria za kwenda Uingereza kwa ajili ya Waukraine waliolazimika kukimbia makazi yao. 

Bila hili, Mswada wa Uraia na Mipaka - ambao unakaribia kuwa sheria wakati mzozo huu unapoendelea - utawafanya raia wa Ukrainia kuwa wahalifu, wakiwemo watoto na vijana, wanaofika Uingereza wakiwa hawana chaguo ila kukimbia chini ya mvuke wao wenyewe. Vita vinapofika kwenye mlango wao, hawawezi kukaa na kungoja.

Tunatoa wito kwa serikali ya Uingereza kuanzisha usaidizi wa kina na kifurushi cha ushirikiano ili kuwakaribisha wakimbizi wa Kiukreni nchini Uingereza. Hii lazima ijumuishe usaidizi wa elimu na ustawi kupitia ushirikiano na serikali za mitaa, mashirika ya misaada na taasisi za elimu. 

REUK iko tayari kusaidia elimu ya watoto wakimbizi wa Kiukreni na vijana ambao wanalazimika kukimbia, kuwasaidia kufufua matumaini ya siku zijazo kati ya kutokuwa na uhakika na uharibifu wa vita katika nchi yao ya asili.

Ufadhili wa Chuo Kikuu na Scholarships: maneno ya awali ya maslahi

Katika hatua hii, tunakusanya maneno ya awali ya 'hakuna kujitolea' kutoka kwa vyuo vikuu ambao wangependa kutoa malazi au ufadhili wa masomo kwa wanafunzi wakimbizi wa Kiukreni kwa ajili ya kuingia Septemba 2022. Iwapo unaweza kujaza fomu hii kwa ajili ya taasisi yako tafadhali fanya hivyo. Ikiwa sivyo, tafadhali tuma hii kwa mtu ndani ya taasisi yako na mamlaka husika.

Mpango wa Nyumba kwa ajili ya Ukraine huwezesha mashirika - ikiwa ni pamoja na vyuo vikuu - kufadhili mkimbizi wa Kiukreni anayekuja Uingereza kupitia utoaji wa malazi.

​

REUK inafadhili vyuo vikuu vinavyotaka kuchunguza uwezekano huu, na kutoa usaidizi kwa wanafunzi wa Kiukreni wanaohitaji kuendelea na masomo yao katika vyuo vikuu nchini Uingereza.

REUK and Youth Advisory Board Statement - Ukraine and refugees in the UK

9th May 2022

​

At the most recent quarterly Youth Advisory Board meeting, one of our board members voiced their frustration and upset at the emerging difference in response in Britain towards refugees from Europe and those from elsewhere. 

​

REUK stands with Ukrainian refugees. We also stand with refugees and asylum seekers from any and every country because we believe that anyone fleeing persecution or conflict is worthy of safety, protection and a chance to rebuild their lives - and that no refugee or asylum seeker should be treated differently because of their background or colour of their skin.

​

We have been warmed by the keenness to respond to the specific crises in Afghanistan and Ukraine, and are working with newly-arrived refugees and asylum seekers from both these countries, as well as from elsewhere. This is why our new Education Welcome Project will address the educational and wellbeing needs of any newly arrived refugee or asylum seeker, whatever their background. 

​

We are very concerned about the number of Afghan refugees still in hotels across the country, and continue to object to the unfair treatment of refugees and asylum seekers from all over the world who are severely restricted in their access to education and other important services. We will keep responding with kindness and urgency to emerging refugee situations, wherever they are in the world. 

​

We will continue to listen and learn from our Youth Advisory Board, and other young people supported by REUK, on the racism they experience, which includes any policies or responses which affect them. We also apply the same scrutiny to our own work as an organisation, and will be sharing an update on the anti-racism work we’ve been doing at REUK and how it fits into our EDI policies more broadly. We will always support young refugees and asylum seekers to overcome the challenges they face here, however they manifest.
