Summary:
>From an international, research-led perspective, this book explores how
languages are foregrounded in education in different countries and
educational sectors, and among different groups of people in contexts of
migration. It is concerned with the movement of people and their languages
as they migrate across borders, and as languages—and their speakers—are
under threat, pressure and pain, even to the point of being silenced.


The contributors explore the multilingual possibilities and opportunities
that these situations present. For example: where children’s education is
neglected because of displacement or exclusion; or in classrooms where
teachers and educational leaders seek to meet the needs of all learners,
including those who are new citizens, refugees, or asylum seekers.
Together, the findings and conclusions emerging from these studies open up
a timely space for interdisciplinary, inter-practitioner, and comparative
researcher dialogue concerning languages and intercultural education in
times of migration.
