[Edling] Teaching about Refugees

Teaching about Refugees

With forced displacement reaching historic levels, schools all over the
world are welcoming increasing numbers of refugee children. Teachers are
facing new challenges in making sense of forced displacement and its
complexities. Refugees and migrants regularly make headlines and the
internet is bustling with information on the topic. Explaining the
situation of refugees and migrants to primary and secondary school children
has become part of many educators’ daily work.

In addition, training and guidance for teachers with refugees in their
classrooms is not always based on best practice, and is not always easily
available.

On this UNHCR Teaching About Refugees page you can find free-of-charge and
adaptable UNHCR teaching materials on refugees, asylum, migration and
statelessness and a section dedicated to professional development and
guidance for primary and secondary school teachers on including refugee
children in their classes. Use and combine these materials as you see fit
in your lessons about the topic.
