Mapping host countries’ education responses to the influx of Ukrainian
students

Since the start of the war in Ukraine on 24 February, more than 3.5 million
people have fled the country, with estimates suggesting that at least 1.5
million of them are children.

Every humanitarian crisis is also an education crisis. Beyond learning,
education offers a protective environment that is even more relevant to
crisis-affected populations, particularly children. One unprecedented
factor of this crisis was the early decision by the EU to activate its
temporary protection scheme allowing the millions fleeing war in Ukraine to
enjoy harmonized rights. On education, EU countries shall grant access to
their education system to persons under 18 years old benefiting from the
temporary protection status under the same conditions as their own
nationals and EU citizens...This particularity calls for increased
coordination of host countries, both within and outside the EU, to assist
and integrate Ukrainian learners, teachers and education staff in national
education systems.
