What Are Your Top 3 Recommendations for Education for Refugees?

Hi FreshEd Listeners. We’re on holiday for the month of August. We’ll be back in September with new episodes, including the next round of Flux. I’ve already listened to a few rough cuts and they’re going to be great. While we’re away, please send us your recommendations for future guests as well as consider donating to FreshEd to keep independent media alive. FreshEd is nothing without you. Thanks for all your support and I’ll be back in September! https://freshedpodcast.com/contact-2/ -- Did you know that today there are more forcibly displaced people than at any time since World War II? The total number comes out to roughly 65 million, including internally displaced peoples, asylum seekers, and refugees. That’s roughly 1 out of every 113 people on Earth. Today I speak with three professors from Teachers College, Columbia University about their research project on refugees, which is being funded by the United States Department of State’s Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration. At Teachers College, Mary Mendenhall is an Assistant Professor of Practice in International and Comparative Education; Garnett Russell is an Assistant Professor of International and Comparative Education; and Elizabeth Buckner is a Visiting Assistant Professor in International Comparative Education. https://freshedpodcast.com/marygarnettelizabeth/ -- Get in touch!
