In the leadup to World Refugee Day 2021, APNOR ran the #EducationEmpowersRefugees campaign to highlight the importance of education for refugees. Like all APNOR’s work, our campaign was based on the voices of refugees: they spoke directly about the value they placed an education in their dreams of a better life, and about what was needed to help them access education.
This video brings together some of the voices we shared over the course of the campaign.
