The news article “Education remains an impossible dream for many refugees and migrants” was posted on March 6, 2019 by UN News. This article focuses on how many young children in the UK dream about going to college but most of them know that it will not be possible. Many of these kids cannot get funding for loans and are charged fees for being from overseas. Many of the refugee camps in Greece and overseas do not offer any formal education, and if there is a slight education system most of them do not have the proper supplies or funding to give an adequate education.
This article was written to give people an insight to see how hard it is for refugees to get an education in America. It gives a lot of insight into the different applications and steps that these kids have to go through and most of the time they just get denied. This work was done to help to create many different funding campaigns and bring awareness to people who are willing to help. These children and schools overseas are in dire need of funding and support. This article also contains facts and information from the Education Cannot Wait program and UNICEF.
I found out that many people are hesitant to fund some of these programs because they are not sure that refugees will have the learning ability to complete schooling or move forward with their lives. I found this to be extremely surprising and almost rude because these refugees are trying to make their lives better so why would they not take the schooling seriously?
The final conclusion of the article is to show that most of these children are fleeing from violence or just want a fresh start. A way to get higher education is just the beginning of them starting their lives and proper schooling and funding plays a significant role in helping them to find stability and support.
