An Exploration of the Educational Experiences of Refugee Children

Abstract

This study examines the educational experiences of refugee children in European nations, primarily Germany. Refugee numbers have reached an all-time high, and the education of refugee children has always been a challenge in host countries. Since education plays a crucial role in refugee children's cultural and social integration, it is imperative to examine their educational experiences. This study focuses on Germany through a review of the relevant literature. This study analyzes the education background of Germany in relation to refugee children's educational difficulties. It incorporates Nussbaum's Capability Approach theory to conclude that host countries within the European Union should ensure that refugee children receive an adequate education by implementing comprehensive long-term coping mechanisms and policies.
