[Behind the Pages] Exploring the Enforceability of Refugees' Right to Education
Behind the Pages, the podcast of the Journal on Education in Emergencies, features exciting and timely conversations with JEiE authors about their work on education in regions affected by crisis and conflict.

In their article “Exploring the Enforceability of Refugees’ Right to Education: A Comparative Analysis of Human Rights Treaties,” Horsch Carsley and Russell find that treaties that focus on cultural, economic, and social rights, including the right to education, are less enforceable overall than treaties that secure political and civil rights.

[Behind the Pages] Are Refugee Children Learning?
Behind the Pages, the podcast of the Journal on Education in Emergencies, features exciting and timely conversations with JEiE authors about their work on education in regions affected by crisis and conflict.

In their article “Are Refugee Children Learning? Early Grade Literacy in a Refugee Camp in Kenya,” Piper, Dryden-Peterson, and co-authors Vidur Chopra, Celia Reddick, and Arbogast Oyanga show that for students in Grades 1 through 3 in Kakuma refugee camp, learning to read is related, in part, to their country of origin, mother tongue, and expectations for returning to their home country.

[Behind the Pages] The Emerging Role of Corporate Actors as Policymakers in EiE
Behind the Pages, the podcast of the Journal on Education in Emergencies, features exciting and timely conversations with JEiE authors about their work on education in regions affected by crisis and conflict. In this episode, Zeena Zakharia highlights a trend toward private authority in education in emergencies policymaking, as corporations and their partners are increasingly part of the education landscape in Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey. Since 2016, the Syria refugee crisis has spurred massive investment in education initiatives from the private sector, especially by corporations and their philanthropic arms. In their article “The Emerging Role of Corporate Actors as Policymakers in Education in Emergencies: Evidence from the Syria Refugee Crisis,” Zakharia and co-author Francine Menashy show that while corporate involvement has brought an influx in attention and resources to refugee learners, corporate influence has filtered up to the policy level as well.
