As of yet, no global policy instrument or document has carefully considered the unique educational needs of urban refugees. The purpose of this report is to examine existing policies and
practices in urban refugee education to identify gaps, opportunities, and promising practices to better meet the distinct educational needs of urban refugees. To that end, this report has two primary objectives: 1) to outline the existing global and national policy landscape and programming space as they pertain to urban refugee education;and 2) to offer recommendations for policymakers and practitioners on how to better meet the educational needs of urban refugees.
