Would you like to support and protect the education of refugee children?

War, violence and displacement drive millions of girls and boys from school, from their refuge, their safe space, their space of peace.

But their education must not stop under any circumstances, even during emergencies. It is precisely in these difficult situations when it is essential that these children continue to receive education and everything that it makes possible: access to food, drinking water, training and protection from violence. We must continue to defend the right to education.
