Hosszú leírás:
This book examines the key debates relating to the rights, responsibilities, policies and practices of the higher education sector when dealing with students from refugee backgrounds.
Exploring the political context of forced migration to countries of settlement, including the impact made by media rhetoric, Refugees in Higher Education identifies how such global issues frame and position the efforts of universities to open access to, and enable the participation of, refugee students. Focusing on the UK and Australia (representing a past colonising and a colonised country) and including a series of individual case studies, it asks challenging questions about the discourses around forced migration, and how these play out for students on a personal level.
With unprecedented levels of forced migration, and the growing strength of anti-immigration arguments as more power is conceded to alt-right conservative governments, Refugees in Higher Education is both a timely and much-needed contribution to its field.
Against the background of the current global migration situation, Stevenson and Baker explore how providing refugees access to higher education influences the course their lives take. They cover key debates; widening participation to higher education systems in settlement countries; refugee students in higher education: a literature review; Aaliyah's story; Andy's story; Sadiya's story; institutional assumptions and other barriers to systemic, structural, and cultural change in higher education; and moving forward. They also clarify the differences in the humanitarian programs and practices in Britain and Australia, and discuss how these variations impact the capacity to access and participate in higher education in the two countries.
