Education of Syrian Immigrants in Türkiye, Jordan, and Lebanon

Abstract

The Syrian civil war, which started in 2011, caused the migration of more than 6 million Syrians, and this wave of migration affected the region in many ways. Neighboring countries with the highest number of Syrian refugees, especially Türkiye, Lebanon, and Jordan, were greatly affected politically, socially, and economically by this process. War negatively affects the lives of children, one of the most vulnerable groups in society, in many ways. One of these negative effects is undoubtedly the interruption of their education, an important element in shaping their entire lives. This study conducted by document scanning method, has dealt with the access of Syrian children to education in the countries which they migrated to in the context of policies and practices. The importance of non-formal education activities in ensuring access to education for hundreds of thousands of out-of-school children in all three countries was discussed. Language training, catch-up training and vocational training programs should be organized within the scope of non-formal education to meet the educational needs of Syrian children who are out of school due to curriculum and language differences, inadequacy of classrooms, poverty and resulting child labor and early marriage of girls.
