When conflict forces children from their homes, education can provide safety, stability and hope.
Yet nearly half of the world's 12.4 million refugee children are out of school.

Displacement often creates barriers to education. Refugee children may face discrimination, lack the documents needed to enrol in school or struggle to access the protection and services they need.

This is why education and justice are deeply connected. Access to legal identity, rights, protection and fair institutions can help ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn.
