Supporting Early Childhood Education Teachers in Refugee Settings
Early childhood education is crucial to all children - but especially for child refugees, many of whom have suffered significant trauma. However, access to quality early learning is often extremely limited, poorly resourced and chronically under-funded. That is the conclusion of a new Theirworld report which analysed ECE provision in refugee settings around the world.

Our report - Supporting Early Childhood Education Teachers in Refugee Settings - identifies four key ways that this can be achieved.
