It aims to understand the motivations, dreams, and aspirations of these individuals, as well as the obstacles they faced and how they overcame them. The book also provides advice for others experiencing displacement and suggests ways that institutions and policymakers can integrate them more successfully. The research was conducted by the students and faculty of The George Washington University Refugee Educational Advancement Laboratory (REAL). Over a year of research, members of the REAL conducted in-depth interviews with students of refugee background and the family members who support them, spoke with practitioners at local, national, and international relief organizations who serve them, and consulted with experts of displacement and reintegration who study them. The findings offer a testament to the persistence of displaced individuals, who are determined to overcome steep odds and achieve their educational dreams. They also offer a clear set of guidelines for institutions, administrators, and policy makers who have it in their power to make a difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 517g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 236 x 160 x 23 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781666913033\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":47481992446202,"sku":"9781666913033","price":80.33,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1751644531774_book.jpg?v=1751753368","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/accessing-quality-education-local-and-global-perspectives-from-refugees-9781666913033","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
