Many women and girls with refugee and migrant backgrounds struggle to access learning opportunities. On many occasions, women and girls have been excluded from the educational systems in their country of origin while at the same time, they are unable to find or access learning opportunities based on their needs in the host countries.
Lack of education in countries of origin and destination creates immense challenges for refugee and migrant women to access safe-living conditions for themselves and/or their children, job opportunities, and decision-making positions, placing them in a position of dependency from male family members, state allowances, and NGOs provisions to survive.
