Folkestone, England, United Kingdom
Every minute, 20 people are forced to flee their homes, escaping war, persecution or violence. There is currently the largest influx of migrants and refugees since WWII: more than 68 million displaced people around the world. Of the 26 million people who are refugees, more than 50% of them are under the age of 18.
Although it’s out of the media spotlight, the ‘refugee crisis’ continues across Europe. Caught up in this are tens of thousands of children.
Just 1 in 4 primary school aged refugee children go to school; 1% of young refugees attend further education. An entire generation is losing the opportunity of education.
“Everyone has the right to an education” – Article 26 UN Convention of Human Rights. We are a group of education specialists, providing mobile refugee education. Our sessions are trauma-aware, working with children and young people at their most vulnerable. We’ve been working consistently in Northern France since 2017, and will expand into working in Northern Greece in 2019.
We need your help to do it!
We need your help to continue our work in Greece, where we have partnered up with Action for Education, a fantastic charity delivering non-formal education across the Greek Islands.
We also support projects in Northern Greece and in the UK – in fact we do our best to offer advice, support, funding and resources wherever they are needed.
Every item that you receive as a ‘perk’ through this site, will go directly to enabling our project to grow, and children and young people to access the education that they need and have a right to.
Please see details on each item for transparent explanation of the costings.
And don’t forget, if you’re looking for our ethical clothing, you can find it at www.schoolbusproject.teemill.com
