Fundraising for REFUGEE EDUCATION ACROSS CONFLICTS TRUST
I feel pretty useless in the whole refugee / migrant crises raging around us in Europe and I'm also confused as to the long term solution - so I tend to focus on the certainties:
We have by no means seen the last of the tide of refugees risking their lives across the Mediterranean and Aegean seas from Syria and beyond.
The first thing people escaping war and conflict, who've lost and left homes, families, livelihoods, prospects, futures, lives and loves should be met with on European soil is safety, warmth, generosity and help.
REACT is dedicated to supporting those fleeing conflicts and living in displaced camps to access education and exercise their right to an independent and dignified economic social and cultural development. As refugees, young people no longer have access to their former schools or textbooks. Being excluded from their national curriculum they are unable to gain vital qualifications, something that can offer them professional employment and a recognized standing in their community and country. At REACT we seek to support refugee students and teachers by working with community leaders and local partners, creating clear impact driven projects to provide educational resources.
