Refugees and displaced persons are disproportionately affected by the world’s learning crisis due to barriers such as overcrowded classrooms, lack of qualified teachers, and limited to no educational materials. For example, in Nyarugusu Refugee Camp, there is a 1:165 teacher to student ratio. For the Congolese, 45% of girls and boys are in pre-primary, 98% attend primary school and only 60% attend secondary school.
Total number of school-aged children in Nyarugusu: 145,000+
Percent of children enrolled in school: 56%
Over the course of our 20-month project in Tanzania, we plan to reach over 1800 children in partnership with the International Rescue Committee. This research will build important evidence for scaling this learning model to thousands more children in need in emergency and host contexts.
